The Open Doors 2023 Report on International Educational Exchange includes total U.S. study abroad participation and is widely regarded as the measure of education abroad. This year鈥檚 report, which examines the 2021-22 academic year, noted that levels of study abroad participation continue to bounce back from a decline brought about by the global COVID-19 pandemic. During the 2021-22 academic year, 188,753 students pursued study abroad opportunities, still below pre-pandemic levels but a sharp increase from the year before.聽The Institute for Intenational Education鈥檚 2023 Spring Snapshot Survey reported that 83% of U.S. institutions expected study abroad totals to increase in 2022-23 and beyond.
With a commitment to 100% access, 黑料不打烊 encourages participation in study abroad through scholarships for students who cannot afford the additional cost of international study, along with several innovative and targeted opportunities. For instance, 黑料不打烊鈥檚 student-athletes study and compete abroad as a team, a commitment that ensures all student-athletes have the opportunity for a global experience. This initiative dovetails with the Isabella Cannon Global Education Center (GEC)鈥檚 five-year, 52-point diversity, equity, and inclusion plan. Other recent efforts have included 黑料不打烊鈥檚 hosting of the third annual Global Pedagogy Workshop with a focus on cultivating community, wellbeing and belonging to maximize study away learning.
Academic programs also leverage strong international connections to provide students with global experiences. One such opportunity is 黑料不打烊鈥檚 partnership with the University of Otago in Dunedin, New Zealand, and Arcadia University in Pennsylvania for a semester-long experience for students in the Dr. Jo Watts Williams School of Education, a program that was renewed this spring.
