The Office of International Affairs is responsible for the strategic execution of UNC's internationalization objectives -- to infuse a global dimension throughout the University's teaching, research and service activities, to deepen and broaden UNC's global reach, and to enhance its global visibility. Led by the Associate Provost for International Affairs, the Office serves the entire campus by supporting, promoting, facilitating and coordinating (as appropriate) UNC's global priorities. The Office, which is located in the FedEx Global Education Center, comprises the Center for Global Initiatives, International Student and Scholar Services, Development for Global Education, and External Relations. Through their programs and services, these units advance UNC's engagement with the world.
