Professionals who work in higher education know that international mobility enhances academic quality, and often realize that instituting international mobility is a challenge.

We know because we’ve spent more than 35 years building an international network of American university campuses offering a range of undergraduate and graduate degree programs in English. And we want to share that exciting history with you, to build new international opportunities together. We know that for many institutions – and students, staff and faculty – choosing the right program is both extraordinarily important and also extraordinarily difficult to do. With Webster, the choice is simple. Develop new international education, research and collaboration opportunities. Expand your study abroad programs and broaden your offerings.
