Faculty Involvement

T​he Comprehensive Internationalization Committee (CIC) is the university committee that coordinates with faculty various aspects of the internationalization process of the university. Co-chaired by the Associate Provost for Global Engagement and Online Learning and a faculty member, CIC is expected to:

• evaluate continuously whether matters in front of the committee need to be shepherded through existing processes involving CCP, CAP and/or the entire Faculty Council;
• coordinate, in conjunction with the ongoing revision of the university's learning goals, and the ongoing program review process in the Liberal Studies Program, a process of periodic inventory and sustained active expansion of the internationalization of the curriculum at DePaul;
• review and approve the study abroad component of First Year Abroad experiences;
• advise the Associate Provost and the Provost on the prioritization of the implementation of proposed and approved short-term study abroad experiences in case of capacity issues;
• advise the Associate Provost and the Provost on academic suitability of candidate international partners;
• coordinate a regular exchange of information on international initiatives in the various colleges, explicitly aimed at:
• creating synergies and collaborations
• avoiding duplications of efforts
• leveraging best practices
• ensuring adherence to set guidelines
• ensure information on existing partnerships with international strategic partners is properly disseminated to the units.

CIC MEMBERSHIP

All colleges and schools at DePaul are invited to create internal committee structures to support the internationalization process at the local level. Among other responsibilities the local structures also create and manage the approval process for short-term study abroad programs originating within each unit.

If you have any ideas about advancing internationalization within your college, we recommend reaching out to your College's International Committee.
