List of events to take place during International Education Week
This joint initiative of the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Department of Education is part of an effort to promote programs that prepare Americans for a global environment and attract future leaders from abroad to study, learn, and exchange experiences.
The International Student Services Office at Fort Hays State University has celebrated International Education Week since 2001. Our goal is to support and promote global awareness and to provide exchange experiences to all students in our small community. International Education Week is a wonderful week of events and activities for all of our students, staff, and faculty to collectively come together and share their experiences!

One such organization is International Student Union (ISU). ISU is a student organization sponsored by the International Student Services Office and all students at FHSU can join.
Other Events
