Gilman Advisor Workshop

"Diversifying the kinds of Students Who Study Abroad and the Regions Where They Go."

 

The challenge facing many underrepresented institutions, in the effort to increase the numbers of non-traditional students who study abroad, is a lack of resources to promote study abroad and limited funding sources available to students. To address this challenge the Gilman Scholarship Program hosts one-day workshops to provide faculty and administrators with the tools to help increase the numbers of underrepresented students who study abroad.

 

The Gilman Advisor Workshop offered at no cost, is designed to provide faculty and administrators with the tools to help increase the number of students who receive Gilman Scholarships on their campus. Additionally, participants have an opportunity to learn more about the benefits of study abroad and how to better advise students on the Gilman application process. All participants receive a free one-year IIE Network membership and information toolkit to assist them in increasing study abroad on their home campus.
