Teaching abroad is a very unique way of gaining a new perspective on teaching and your students, advancing your skills professionally and personally, and adding some adventure to your routine. Imagine teaching in a giant learning lab with smaller class sizes ranging from 20-30 students.

The call for proposals is put out twice a year for programs that are estimated to leave in 18 to 24 months. E.g. in Fall 2019, the call will be put out for programs for Winter 2021/Summer 2021.

Time of travel could also depend on the best travel season for that destination. If an instructor submits a proposal, e.g. to Thailand, the study abroad committee will recommend the earliest available season of travel.

Once a program submission is turned in, the program will be approved a minimum of 18 months before departure.

Instructors teach classes abroad with same rigor as on campus, adhering to Carnegie hours. A brief description of responsibilities include helping put program together, promotion of program, interview of applicants, teaching, and program management “outside of the classroom.” A full list of responsibilities is included in the link below.
