On-Campus Internationalization
Georgia Tech students, faculty, and staff can globally engage on Tech’s campus through various On-Campus Internationalization (OCI) programs and initiatives. OCI offers programming that allows campus to engage with cultures, learn about important global issues, develop global competencies, and participate in meaningful intercultural learning--all while having a great time! Students can go global at GT though the Global Leadership Living Learning Community, the International House Living Learning Community, the International Plan undergraduate degree designation, the TECHsplore visiting student programs, International Education Week, the Global Career Series, the ICEBERG intercultural learning series, and the Global at Home program, among other opportunities.
Global Leadership
Global Leadership students from all majors and backgrounds live in Perry and Matheson Halls their first year at GT, take a fall and spring class together, and explore global Atlanta. GL student action teams focus on cultural exchange and achieving the UN's #GlobalGoals.
International Plan
The International Plan is GT's globally-focused degree designation, recognizing students who make global competence a core part of their GT experience. The program requires students to engage in twenty-six weeks of international experience, develop proficiency in a foreign language, and take global coursework.
TECHsplore
TECHsplore and TECHsplore Summer provide the only pathway for international, non-degree-seeking students to study at GT without an exchange agreement. Both programs provide visiting students with pre-arrival support, on-site advising, orientation, and cultural programming.
International Education Week
International Education Week is a week-long celebration of international education and cultural exchange in mid-November each year. OIE partners with academic departments, student clubs, and other campus partners to host events celebrating IEW's mission.
GUAC
Internationalize your college experience by pursuing these global undergraduate academic credentials (GUAC) through the study of business, culture, language, economics, engineering, regional studies, and more.
Intercultural Learning
OIE facilitates intercultural learning activities to promote effective communication and collaboration across the GT community. We offer tailored trainings for faculty, staff, and students to reduce cross-cultural misunderstanding and improve relationships across cultures.
