• promoting study abroad opportunities, as well as providing pre-departure and in-country support to students,
• supporting the recruitment, admissions, and welcome of inbound exchange students,
• contributing to the continuous improvement of study abroad support.
The ideal candidate will:
• have a passion and clear understanding of the benefits of working or studying abroad for students,
