Faculty & Staff

60 Minutes Around the Globe is a program series hosted by the International House Ann Arbor (IHAA) and the International Center where members of the international community share a brief presentation about the culture and history of their home country. The presentation is followed by a time for discussion and enjoying light refreshments. Join us on Friday, September 12 at 2:00 PM as we learn about the culture and history of Kazakhstan at the International House Ann Arbor (921 Church Street). Snacks and refreshments will be served!

International Coffee Hour is a great opportunity to meet new people from around the world! The event is open to all members of the U-M community, including international and U.S. students, scholars, faculty, staff and their partners.

Our September event will be held in partnership with the English Language Institute (ELI). ELI staff will be in attendance to share resources and answer any questions you might have! This month’s coffee hour will also feature an ice cream bar from Washtenaw Dairy (while supplies last).

Welcome all new U-M student and scholar families! Join the International Center, the Center for the Education of Women+ (CEW+), Michigan Caregivers and Student Parents (MCaSP), the Mary A. Rackham Institute’s University Center for the Child and Family (UCCF), U-M’s Children’s Center, and Northwood Graduate & Family Housing for a welcome dinner at the Northwood Community Center Multipurpose Room (1000 McIntyre Drive).

Keep the World Cup energy going by playing a pick-up soccer game with the IC! This game will be played at Hubbard Road Recreation Field on North Campus. All are welcome!

This will be a very casual game and is meant for meeting other international students and scholars. We recommend bringing athletic clothing, cleats/gym shoes, and a water bottle (Hubbard Field does not have a drinking fountain).
