International Education Week
International Education Week (IEW) celebrates the transformative power of international education to expand students' horizons and build individual and institutional connections around the world. The Carlson Global Institute celebrates IEW with events to highlight international education at the Carlson School of Management.
The U.S. Departments of State and Education first declared International Education Week in 2000 as part of their effort to encourage policies and programs that prepare Americans for a global environment and attract future leaders from abroad to study in the U.S.
