Episode #335: The Case for Global Learning in a Changing World
About this episode
The episode discusses the importance of global learning and international education in today's interconnected world with Jason Czyz from the Institute of International Education.
This week we spoke with Jason Czyz, President and CEO of the Institute of International Education (IIE), about the evolving landscape of global education and international student mobility. They explore how scholarship programs, study abroad experiences, and academic exchange initiatives continue to play a critical role in building cross-cultural understanding, workforce readiness, and global collaboration. The conversation also examines current enrollment and mobility trends, including shifts in international student enrollment in the U.S. and growing demand for experiential learning opportunities like internships abroad. Ultimately, it’s a reminder that international education is not just about travel—it’s about developing globally minded leaders, strengthening local and national economies, and preparing students to navigate an increasingly interconnected world.
