Understand the program before discussing your institution’s next steps.
UIDP is designed for universities and higher education institutions seeking a structured approach to internationalization, including leadership teams, international offices and academic units.
No. International students are one dimension of the framework. UIDP also addresses governance, teaching, research, partnerships and international visibility.
The framework provides a shared structure, while priorities and the implementation roadmap should reflect each institution’s mission, resources, readiness and goals. The engagement scope is defined through an initial discussion.
A brief institutional profile, your main internationalization priorities and any existing strategy or relevant reports will help frame the conversation. Detailed assessment requirements can be discussed afterwards.
Let’s discuss your institution’s priorities and explore how UIDP can support a clear path forward.
