Global Engagement

As part of the Office of International Education, the Global Engagement department advances UTA’s strategic initiatives in relation to international education and intercultural learning.

Global Engagement provides intercultural programs that connect our diverse U.S. and international student populations, trainings and assessments that enhance cultural understanding for all members of the UTA community, ongoing support for international students in a variety of areas, and global education opportunities.

Global Engagement Initiatives

Cultural Exchange Program (CEP)

Students from around the United States and the world have joined this free and popular program to promote intercultural dialogue and exchange. In the Cultural Exchange Program (CEP), participants are paired up and are provided with the resources to have engaging conversations on culture, language, and the UTA experience. Partners have the freedom to choose when and where they would like to meet each week, and also have access to special CEP-exclusive events and programs to help build their network of Mavericks from all around the globe.

The Global Mavericks (GM) Newsletter is a bi-weekly Department of Global Engagement newsletter that will help you find fun activities, meet new people, and learn about intercultural opportunities at UTA.
