Curriculum Integration
The University of Minnesota is acknowledged internationally as innovators of a successful model of study abroad curriculum integration in which study abroad professionals, faculty, and academic advisers collaborate to internationalize the undergraduate experience.
The "Minnesota Model" of study abroad curriculum integration is based on partnering with academic units to effectively meet institutional goals to internationalize the curriculum. This model spreads the ownership for international education throughout the institution.
