Developed in partnership with the Center for International Higher Education (CIHE) at Boston College (MA), International Briefs for Higher Education Leaders will consist of two releases per year. The first will focus on a specific country and the second will focus on one aspect of global engagement.

Resources are organized according to The CIGE Model for Comprehensive Internationalization, and may provide useful models for other colleges and universities as they pursue their internationalization goals.
