International Initiatives was created to coordinate, initiate and sustain international initiatives across the University, including the Law Center and the Medical Center. To ensure that all academic units were represented, a Faculty Committee for International Initiatives was appointed with members representing departments and programs across the University.
Within the Office of the Provost, the International Initiatives Team develops, implements and evaluates international programs and serves as a clearinghouse on international activities at Georgetown. The team also operates the Georgetown University Liaison Office in Shanghai, China and maintains the Georgetown International Traveler's Resource, along with other web sites on Georgetown's international presence.
