Appalachian Overseas Education Programs (AOEP)
(Faculty-Led Programs)

 

 

 

The OIED would like to encourage Appalachian faculty to consider leading an Appalachian Overseas Education Program in 2009. Our mission is to work together with faculty and academic departments to develop an educational experience abroad for Appalachian students and to assist potential program leaders in developing new programs.

Appalachian Overseas Education Programs (AOEP) offer enriching experiences for both faculty and students. While fostering global awareness and providing students with an opportunity to travel and study abroad, these programs provide rewarding travel opportunities and stimulating professional growth and development to faculty members. During the past academic year, faculty-led Appalachian Overseas Education Programs served over 450 students with study opportunities in Central and South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Australian region.

First Time Program Leaders:

Faculty members who would like to lead an Appalachian Overseas Education Program for the first time are strongly encouraged to contact us for a pre-proposal consultation. We will be happy to offer you guidance and answer questions you may already have before starting the process of submitting your proposal. By seeking our professional experience in the field of overseas education, you will gain practical and time-saving advice that will help you explore additional options when designing a new program. We can provide you with programmatic, logistical, and budgetary advice tailored to your program’s unique characteristics, needs, and challenges.

Please make an appointment to discuss your project/ideas with:

Meg Marck-Kennedy at marckkennedy@appstate.edu (262-6692) or

Nathalie Turner at turnernm@appstate.edu (262-8034).

We are looking forward to meeting with you!
