Global Advisory Board

The Lewis & Clark Global Advisory Board was formed to assist in the development of Lewis & Clark’s global educational operations, including but not limited to, expanded opportunities for both study and research abroad, international student recruitment, career and internship opportunities in international fields, and educational exchanges with partner institutions abroad. Additionally, the Global Advisory Board advises the College about curricular and other opportunities to enhance global awareness.

Membership

Members represent a broad range of experience, expertise, geographical locations, and professional fields that helps them link the classroom to practice by providing student mentoring, program support, and insight for faculty and staff.

Members meet bi-annually and requirements include:

  • Participating in a minimum of one meeting per year
  • Committing to a renewable, three-year term

In addition, Lewis and Clark strives for 100% giving participation from the College’s advisory boards.
