Office of International Programs

International Education Week (IEW) at Appalachian State University is an annual celebration of the global engagement that happens throughout the year through our clubs, courses, and conversations. Students, staff, faculty, and community members are encouraged to participate in programming throughout the week of November 17-21, 2025!  

IEW on the national level is a joint initiative of the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Department of Education and part of our efforts to promote programs that prepare Americans for a global environment and attract future leaders from abroad to study, learn, and exchange experiences in the United States.

The Office of International Programs invites you host an IEW event this year!  We welcome globally or culturally themed event proposals from App State faculty, staff, and students.  

Submit a proposal to host an International Education Week 2025 event through this form (click here).

IEW proposal deadline:  October 15, 2025
