INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS AT TEXAS STATE txstate.edu/internationalminds Texas State University is building strong international partnerships through direct student and faculty engagement, collaborative projects and scholarship that spans traditional boundaries. Last year, more than 700 Texas State students chose to study in countries around the globe. We proudly welcomed undergraduate, graduate and English language students from 74 countries, while more than 80 international scholars made Texas State their home for expanding research frontiers. Texas State is committed to welcoming international students and scholars who bring diversity, new perspectives and innovative ideas into its classrooms, laboratories and campus life. With an internationally minded faculty and an ever more globally engaged student body and university community, Texas State subscribes to a comprehensive vision of internationalization and nurtures the international dimensions of teaching, learning and discovery through: Student support services to enhance the international student experience and success in the classroom and beyond » Partnerships that advance its core academic mission and encourage students and faculty to approach global challenges and opportunities in new ways » Faculty engagement that enriches research and curricula to create a hub of global intellectual activities » Collaborative and inclusive international strategy that fosters sustainable cross-cultural opportunities 12
