International Embedded Courses

International Embedded Courses are courses taught at W&M with a significant international off-campus component. The course is primarily taught on campus and must meet the following criteria:

• Time off-campus must be dedicated to research or project-based learning
• The minimum week off-campus could be during a semester break or at the end of a course prior to the start of the next semester.
• Each course must include a reflective component that covers the time spent away
• Course would count as part of the regular teaching load of proposing faculty and therefore requires support from departmental chair.

The Global Education Office at the Reves Center is now accepting applications for international embedded 2026-27 fall and spring semester embedded courses. A limited number of embedded courses will receive scholarship funding to support student participants. All faculty travel costs as well as a $1,250 faculty stipend will be covered for selected programs. An embedded course should be approved to be part of your normal teaching load.

Deadline: January 27, 2026
