Helpful Resources
One of the primary goals of the Global Education Office (GEO) is to make global learning experiences available to every ASU student. On Faculty-Directed (FD) programs, students are able to experience learning and living in a global setting. These opportunities would not be possible without your dedication as a Faculty Director.
These resources are designed to prepare you for this responsibility and to provide you with the information you need to develop and implement a successful program. It is intended to guide both first-time and continuing program leaders through the entire process. GEO will be your partner throughout your time as a program leader, and we encourage you to reach out to our team for support along the way.
