Why participate in IEW?

Students

IEW events are meant to help you to build on your core competencies through a global lens. The week highlights students’ experiences as global citizens, showcases exchange and study abroad programs, and provides an opportunity to broaden your global perspective without having to leave campus. We are all international students in an increasingly global community.

Staff & Faculty

IEW serves as a reminder of the vital role research in other countries plays in enriching Brock and its communities with fresh knowledge and diverse perspectives.
