About the Office of International Studies & Programs

The Michigan State University Office of International Studies and Programs (ISP) is a university-level office, headed by a dean, that supports and encourages international activities throughout the institution. Contained within ISP are offices with responsibilities for study abroad, international students and scholars, international development activities, and Peace Corps recruiting, as well as area studies centers focusing on Africa, Asia, Canada, Europe and Russia, and Latin America and the Caribbean. ISP has strong ties to thematic international units across the campus focusing on international aspects of agriculture, business, education, gender, health, and languages, and works closely with the academic colleges. ISP is actively involved in international outreach activities with schools, government offices, businesses, and non-governmental organizations in Michigan and beyond and has developed a number of free international-content web-based resources for students, educators, and the wider public.
