eaie.org/seville CONFERENCE COMPANION WELCOME TO EAIE SEVILLE 2017 With its beautiful, multicultural influences and colourful tiled walls, Seville makes for a fitting metaphor of the work done by international educators. As a field, international higher edu- cation is the craft of bringing different perspectives together. In exposing our universities, our faculty, our students and our efforts to the world, we nurture critical thinking and fruitful collaboration. With the fitting theme of ‘a mosaic of cultures’, welcome to the 29th Annual EAIE Conference & Exhibition in Seville! The EAIE wishes you a productive and inspiring week ahead. #EAIE2017 CONTENTS 06 Schedule at a glance Plan your day 09 New to the EAIE Conference?
