Campus Strategic Plan for Internationalization

“The important issues of our day do not stop at international borders… It is important that our community of students and scholars collaborate to
problem-solve on a global scale, advance the well-being of people and places worldwide, and value the diversity of thought that
an international perspective provides.” – UCSC Chancellor Cynthia Larive
