The UCIE acts as a catalyst for international education at Wright State University and facilitates an environment where students, faculty, and staff have increased opportunities to gain international understanding through learning and experience.
The University Center for International Education seeks to achieve its mission by serving as the focal point of international education on Wright State's campus by:
• Coordinating the efforts to recruit, admit, and advise international students and scholars and assist them in achieving academic and personal success.
• Promoting cross-cultural understanding by developing and coordinating exchange and study abroad opportunities for Wright State University students, faculty, and staff.
• Collaborating with academic departments and global partners to internationalize the curriculum and seek external funding to support new international initiatives.

To explore Spain through a culinary lens, Wright State faculty members have created a study-abroad program that will marinate students in the culture and gastronomy of Spain for two weeks in May.
