What are your main responsibilities within your current role?
In my current role as the Associate Director of International Programs and Partnerships in the College of Education at Lehigh, I work with our global students from first contact through alumni relations. I assist them as they begin the application process and advise them while they are in the program.
I help plan their summer institutes, which are the in-person component of their program. The rest of the program is online, and I handle any administrative work associated with that for the students. I also keep our alumni involved in the program once they have graduated.
So, I manage the full student lifecycle for our global students. Additionally, I work on any partnerships the College of Education is developing with other universities worldwide and help build relationships with other institutions.
