International Education

Welcome Back From Your Trip!

To provide continuity and feedback and make suggestions for future program improvements, returning faculty are expected to submit an end-of-program report to the Cronin Office of International Education. This report should be submitted within one month after returning to campus so that the insights, suggestions, and comments can influence the planning for the following year’s program.
