Get Your Passport Ready!

If you're a full time faculty member at MCC and are looking for an exciting, adventurous, and pedagogically relevant travel opportunity, Lindsay Carson has something for you.

For the past five years, Lindsay has been hard at work honing the College's study abroad programming, made available through the Illinois Consortium for International Studies and Programs (ICISP), and that programming includes three teaching abroad programs. It's not just the students who get to have all the fun--we get in on the action, too!
Here's a breakdown of our three programs. Compare, contrast, and find one that's perfect for you.

Because of ICISP regulations and the institutions through which ICISP organizes, current opportunities are only available to full time faculty members. At this time, the three excellent programs outlined above fill our international studies plate--of course Lindsay may be developing additional opportunities in the future, but for now, we hope you find that one of our existing programs fits your availability and interests.

Lindsay will also be leading two workshops this semester, scheduled for October 23 and November 11, and a lunch-n-learn about our three programs (date to be scheduled). The curriculum map for her two workshops is posted below. Visit the Professional Development auto-registration system to enroll, and feel free to contact Lindsay with additional questions!
