Have you ever wondered what a Provost does? Are you planning on teaching
and researching abroad in the future? In this workshop, we will investigate
the similarities and differences between higher education in the United
States and many of the countries where our faculty and students come from.
We will begin with a description of the administrative and academic culture
of UC Davis and then move into comparisons with different systems around
the world. Participants will share their many perspectives on higher
education and learn specific tips for navigating U.S. academe. The workshop
is geared toward ITAs and anyone who plans to teach, research, or live
abroad in the future.
