Welcome to the International College of the University of Bridgeport. Our College is a close-knit learning community of established and burgeoning scholars who are committed to the furtherance of international awareness, effective intercultural communication and academic excellence. The College’s pertinent academic offerings, its small classes, its diverse faculty, its tradition of close student-faculty relations and its co-curricular activities all contribute to the quality of the International College educational experience.

The International College’s undergraduate and graduate programs as well as concentrations in intercultural communication, conflict resolution are social science-based. The College also provides service learning opportunities. The international student body of UB, both a "living laboratory" and a "microcosm of the global world," provides an unparalleled context for University study, which may help to explain why in the span of just one decade graduates have gone on to succeed in international organizations, transnational corporations and in top graduate programs.

To prospective students, the professors and I look forward to welcoming you visit the UB campus. For 2010-2011 entering students as well current students and alumni, please feel free to stop by my office (235 Carlson Hall). I will look forward to meeting you.
