FOCUS ON SOUTHEAST ASIA: THAILAND, INDONESIA, VIETNAM
HIGHER EDUCATION IN CONTEXT
The International Briefing acts as a way to both inform the UPCEA membership
about important areas of international education as well as to serve as a
primer for a smaller group of members who travel to select locations based on
member demand and participant interest. The 2015 UPCEA International Briefing,
hosted as a post-conference to the 2015 UPCEA 100th Annual Conference,
will focus on programming opportunities between U.S. Institutions and entities
in Southeast Asia.
