Committee on International Programs established

The Committee on International Programs (CIP) is a new addition to CLA's consultative bodies. The committee’s purpose is to provide advice and guidance to the college on: 

• the direction and development of international programs within CLA; 
• issues affecting international studies, research, and students in the college and at the U; 
• ways in which CLA’s activities link to broader international initiatives at the University of Minnesota; and 
• responses to issues at the campus level on international-related matters. 

CIP will address issues related to the role of internationalization in teaching, research, and engagement and will consider ways in which internationalization promotes CLA Roadmap goals in these areas as well as the ways in which internationalization deepens collegiate and University goals of diversity, equity, and inclusion.
