OHIO's Global Strategy

Strategic Priorities

  1. Build a holistic approach to recruit and support international students and alumni
  2. Globalize the academic mission in which faculty are supported to educate, conduct research and offer experiential learning to all students with a global and cross-cultural lens and inclusive approach
  3. Invest in relationships through supporting priorities such as strategic partners, targeted communications and performance metrics

Faculty Development as a Priority

Faculty members with increased global awareness will be actively engaged in globally focused teaching, research, and service and ensure the success of ALL students.

Leading research is increasingly international in nature and global in focus. OHIO should create incentives to encourage more faculty to conduct research on global issues, forge global collaborations, and access global funding sources and innovative opportunities.

Targeted Outcomes for Globalizing Academic Mission

  • Globally competent and confident faculty and staff
  • Increased capacity for global education and research
  • Faculty with diversity and global expertise being recruited, supported and retained
  • OHIO students graduating with critical global knowledge and skills
