Charge and Membership
The broad charge to the University International Council (UIC) is to initiate, foster, coordinate, evaluate and effectively communicate the international activities of the University. The UIC will propose and monitor guidelines and priorities for the University's international activities regarding the following issues: International Linkages, International Student and Faculty Issues, International Faculty Professional Travel, Study Abroad, and Internationalizing the Curriculum.
The University International Council recommends policy and courses of action to the Director of the Center of International Studies, the Provost, and the President.
Appointments will be made by the President from nominations presented by the Committee on Committees. The faculty appointments are based on recommendations from the Faculty Senate Executive Committee based on nominations from the dean of each college. Each dean will nominate at least two faculty for each position.

All University committees follow the academic-year calendar. All students serve one-year terms. Undergraduate students are indicated by US and graduate students by GS. Faculty, administrators and staff generally serve three-year terms; the year a committee member's term expires is shown to the right of the person's name. Individuals who are not students and who have no year to the right of their names have Ex-Officio appointments. Ex-Officio appointments have voting privileges unless otherwise noted.
