Dear Colleagues:
Turkey has emerged as one of the strongest economies in Europe leading towards the expansion of its higher education system with commitment to capacity building in curriculum development, students and faculty exchanges and English language learning projects. Towson’s International Initiatives Office has identified Turkey as one of the prioritized countries for the recruitment of international students as well as for gaining capacity building projects in the area of language and cultural immersion short term programs and training opportunities through partnerships with Turkish universities and organizations. The College of Fine Arts and Communication (COFAC) is also interested in engaging its faculty in the discussion of Turkish universities as potential partners.
You are invited to attend the Turkey-Interest Group Meeting to find out more about Turkey as the potential prioritized country and contribute to the discussion of how Towson University can strategize to develop effective partnerships with Turkish institutions.
The Turkey-Interest Group Meeting will be held on Monday, September 22, 2014 at
PY 407 from 9:00-10:00 a.m.
We look forward to your participation in this important exploration.
If you are not able to attend this meeting, please send your ideas about involvement with Turkish academic institutions to ssuleman@towson.edu
