IIE American Passport Project
It has long been part of IIE’s mission to create connections and increase participation among all students in study abroad. For students of limited means, studying abroad can require long-term planning and involve financial hurdles, like the cost of a passport, which could prevent them from moving forward. With support from IIE’s Board of Trustees and generous donors, IIE plans to enable 10,000 U.S. students to have passports by the end of this decade, empowering them to study abroad with ongoing guidance from their U.S. institutions.

IIE Global Scholars Program Powered by Exelon Foundation
Through a multi-year commitment to prepare the next generation of American leaders in the energy industry, the Exelon Foundation and IIE have created this opportunity for American undergraduate students to engage in a global exploration of how energy solutions are developed and implemented in the U.S. and abroad.
