The IIC engages students to honor and embrace cultural traditions. Alverno’s multicultural programming affords our students opportunities to experience diverse cultures on and off campus, through global exchange experiences and collaborative programming integrating multicultural values and global perspectives into the learning community.
As a resource to Alverno College, the International and Intercultural Center:
- Partners with other departments to infuse diversity fluency in their programming. Develops opportunities to increase student engagement in curricular activities and through cultural events and student organization interaction.
- Engages with students to explore and participate in study abroad programs around the world. Supports faculty to develop and offer short-term study abroad courses to Alverno students and community.
- Advises international exchange and degree-seeking students through the admissions process. Supports international students during their time on campus, including multicultural programming, ongoing advising and host family connections.
