Narrative
Section 1: Inclusivity—the degree to which the institution is committed to empowering all students through global learning.
Demonstrate how your institution is committed to empowering all students through global learning. To the extent possible provide quantitative indicators of how inclusive your internationalization efforts have been to date and describe how you are working to improve inclusiveness across all dimensions of diversity—socioeconomic or first-generation status, gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, age or other categories your institution may monitor. Recognizing that not all students cross international borders during their education, explain how your institution fosters “internationalization at home” and provide evidence of innovative approaches to inclusive global learning.*
Section 2: Internationalization of Research and Engagement—the degree to which the institution is committed to the internationalization of research and engagement.
Provide concrete evidence demonstrating how your institution’s research and engagement missions have benefited from internationalization efforts at your institution. Provide evidence demonstrating how the institution supports internationalization of research and engagement activities and show the impact of your accomplishments in these areas. Engagement is defined as: “the collaboration between institutions of higher education and their larger communities (local, regional/state, national, global) for the mutually beneficial exchange of knowledge and resources in a context of partnership and reciprocity.”*
Section 3: Leadership and Pervasiveness—the degree to which the institution’s leadership (president/chancellor or provost level) has made internationalization a priority for the institution and the degree to which internationalization pervades the culture across campus.
Describe how your institution’s leadership makes internationalization a priority within the mission, vision, values, and organizational structure of the university. How does the leadership of your institution show its commitment to internationalization, particularly to internationalizing the curriculum? How does the administration work with faculty, staff, and students to foster a pervasive culture of internationalization? Describe the reach and breadth of your internationalization efforts.*
Section 4: Assessment— the degree to which the institution is committed to measuring progress and impact of internationalization across the institution.
How does your institution measure progress (towards increased inclusiveness and pervasiveness of internationalization as well as other goals related to internationalization) and assess the outcomes/impact from internationalization? Please include any key performance indicators in your response.*
