Staff are invited to register for 'Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê: The International Dimension - Strategy & Practice', sessions building on Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê's new 'International Strategy', to be held on 14 July 2005.
The strategy is informed by last year's White Paper, Designing a 10-Year Strategy for Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê, which described the vision for Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê: to fulfil its promise to become London's global university.
In the introductory plenary, Professor Michael Worton, Vice-Provost (Academic & International) will introduce the strategy, followed by a panel discussion on 'Internationalising the Curriculum - What Does it Mean?'
A number of parallel sessions follow throughout the day (please see link above for full details).
The day's final session is 'Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Abroad - Opportunities and Challenges: The Role of the Pro-Provosts in Internationalising Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê', featuring Professor Wendy Davies, Pro-Provost (European Affairs), Professor David Norse, Pro-Provost (China, Hong Kong and Macao) and Professor Philip Treleaven, Pro-Provost (East and Southeast Asia).
Throughout the day relevant exhibitions will be on display in the South Cloisters, including:
- 'Any Language You Want to Use' - Information Systems
- 'SSEES Today' - School of Slavonic & East European Studies
- 'International Angles of Graduate Study' - Graduate School
- 'Library Services: Supporting Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê's International Strategy' - Library Services
