Eric Schueller from CIEE will be on campus to give an info session to U-M students interested in studying or interning abroad through CIEE this summer (or in the future).

CIEE is a third-party education abroad provider that offers study and internship abroad programs in locations all over the world. Each year, a number of U-M students study and/or intern through CIEE, both through UM-approved programs and through "non-UM" (independent) programs.

Teaching English abroad can be a cost-effective way to spend a year (or two!) immersing yourself in another culture after graduation. There are many ways to go about teaching English abroad, so we invite you to join us for a session that will cover topics including things to know about teaching English abroad, opportunities to do so, and how to prepare for the experience while still a student at U-M!

This event is co-sponsored by the International Center & the English Language Institute (ELI).

Come play another pick-up soccer game with the IC! This month’s game will be played indoors at the Sports Coliseum on a hard court (much like futsal).

This will be a very casual game and is meant for meeting other international students and scholars. We recommend bringing athletic clothing, gym shoes, and a water bottle.
