COVID-19 Updates: Miami's response to the coronavirus pandemic and CDC's coronavirus health and safety guidelines.
We support Miami University's commitment to advancing global learning. In fact, we foster quality experiences for students, faculty, and guests surrounding scholarship, and teaching between different cultures.
Global Initiatives promotes the dynamic, comprehensive internationalization of the University through the infusion of multicultural and comparative perspectives in scholarship, teaching, and service. Support focuses on user- and constituent-friendly services with a commitment to efficiency and acts as the connective tissue for all internationalization realms.
We drive internationalization activities and networks at Miami University through collaborative engagement with local and global communities. We seek to transform the learning of students, faculty, and staff through educational opportunities across borders and disciplines and provide outstanding service.
We support an interdisciplinary, inquiry-driven environment in which the learner’s strengths and interests are recognized and expanded through welcoming, personal, values-based, collaborative, and quality driven approaches and meaningful global opportunities.
We demonstrate respect for one another and the community we serve by: valuing inclusiveness and diversity, trusting in one another's capabilities, and treating others as we wish to be treated.
We act with honesty and adhere to the highest standards of moral and ethical values and principles through our personal and professional behavior. We expect our actions to be consistent with our words, and our words to be consistent with our intentions. We accept our responsibilities and subject ourselves to the highest standards of public trust. We hold ourselves accountable for our words and our actions.
