Leading a faculty-led program

Leading a faculty-led program (FLP) contributes to advancing BHSU's commitment to fostering student development and global awareness, while giving you the chance to internationalize your classroom, research and networks. The Office of International Relations serves as your point of contact and support in developing and delivering these programs. Below, you will find helpful resources and step-by-step instructions to start the process of developing your FLP. We look forward to working with you!
