Eligibility and Selection Process

 

ELIGIBILITY

Applications will be made available to faculty in the fall prior to the program. Examples of successful applications from past seminars are available here on the application webpage. The number of spots available will vary from year to year and will be announced at the time that applications are made available.

 To be eligible for the ZSEIFS, the following requirements must be met:

• Full-time faculty member employed by WKU;
• Department and College endorsement (to be indicated on application form);
• Cost-share from university or grant-based sources;
• Capable of meeting the potential physical demands of the Seminar--which may vary depending on location. For more information on the expected physical demands, contact OIP (internationalization@wku.edu) or the designated Faculty Leader.

 **No children/dependents will be permitted to accompany ZSEIFS participants.

 SELECTION PROCESS

 Applications will be evaluated by OIP, an International Education Advisory Council Representative, and multiple ZSEIFS alumni, based on this scoring rubric.

 

NOTE: Although we will give preference to faculty members limited (or no) international professional experience, faculty with international experience are eligible for participation in the ZSEIFS.
