​ACE's Center for Internationalization and Global Engagement is now inviting colleges and universities to apply to the 13th cohort of the ACE Internationalization Laboratory, which runs from August 2015 to April 2017.

The Laboratory provides institutions with customized guidance and insight as they review their internationalization goals and develop strategic plans.

As part of the Internationalization Laboratory, experts from ACE work with institutions to help them:

  • Form an internationalization leadership team on campus;
  • Review current internationalization activities to clarify institutional goals; and
  • Develop a strategic action plan based on an analysis of current activities on campus.

Participating institutions also will have access to:

  • On-campus site visits by ACE staff, involving a roundtable discussion with the leadership team and key stakeholders to facilitate dialogue, define key questions and issues, clarify goals and build support for the internationalization process;
  • Three meetings of the entire Laboratory cohort, hosted by ACE in Washington, DC; and
  • Regular contact with and guidance from ACE staff as the campus conducts its review, analyzes findings and develops its action plan.

To inquire about participation, please contact Barbara Hill, senior associate for internationalization. The deadline to apply is July 31, 2015.
