Miami University observes International Education Week (IEW) each November with a wide range of special activities. It is a great opportunity for your student to enjoy some fun before they head home for Thanksgiving break.

For instance, on November 15, your students are invited to attend the Faculty Led Study Abroad and Away Showcase, where they can learn about short- and long-term opportunities. 

And the Global Friendship Thanksgiving Dinner is a community event that engages international students and the wider Miami community in fun activities over class Thanksgiving food! Seats are limited: Register in advance.

International Peer Orientation Leaders (iPOLs) are undergraduate or graduate students who assist ISSS with welcoming new international students to Miami University. iPOLs play an integral role in shaping a positive orientation experience for new international students and preparing them to achieve success at Miami.

As an iPOL, your student will receive hourly compensation and professional leadership development. They can visit the iPOL website to learn more and apply!
