Research and Publications

Each year we publish the Open Doors Report on International Educational Exchange in partnership with the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs of the U.S. Department of State. Other recent publications include a book on developing strategic international partnerships and a landmark report on classifying higher education institutions in the Middle East and North Africa. IIE also provides research and program evaluation services to domestic and international governmental agencies, nongovernmental organizations, and foundations.

With IIE publications now formatted for mobile devices, including the iPad, our publications reach a larger audience than ever before.
