2025 Fall "Faculty Connections" Showcase and Networking Event for International Education Week


Join us for International Education Week 2025, officially celebrated November 17, 2025, with a variety of events held during the entire month of November for faculty, students, and staff. This national initiative, traditionally sponsored by the U.S. Department of Education and the U.S. Department of State, celebrates the benefits of international exchange and education worldwide. At Emory, International Education Week is organized by the Global Engagement Office with committee members from nearly all schools and multiple units. The theme for 2025 is
One World, Many Voices: Education for a Compassionate Future.

Faculty Showcase Opportunity

We invite faculty across the university to showcase their international collaborations by responding to the following questions:

  • What international collaborations are you involved in, either in your teaching or in your research and scholarly endeavors?
  • What type of work is involved in these collaborations?
  • How has the international nature of the work enhanced your teaching, scholarship, or research?


What to Expect

Selected faculty members will be featured by the CFDE with their biographical information, responses, and photos. Additionally, the showcased faculty and other Emory community members will be invited to an in-person, networking event on November 19, 4:30 - 6:00 pm to discuss their international collaborations. 
Please note:
 If we receive more submissions than we are able to feature, selections will be made to ensure representation across Emory’s academic units and the global regions reflected in the submissions.

Call for Submissions

Full-time and part-time faculty, including graduate students teaching independently, are invited to submit the following information:
  • Biographical statement (maximum 50 words)
  • Responses to the three questions above (maximum 200 words total)
  • A professional headshot
