Additional UCEAP Opportunities

In line with UC's mandate to advance academic integration efforts for systemwide academic programs (e.g., UC Online Education, UC Education Abroad Program, UC Washington DC Center), UCEAP is setting up a Faculty Liaison Corps (FLC) across the 9 UC undergraduate campuses in order to advance its academic integration and outreach goals. Faculty Liaisons will be expected to assist with the development of course articulation plans for students in their major and to advertise UCEAP offerings with their students and faculty colleagues. UCEAP will provide an online orientation as well as outreach materials for faculty liaisons and will hold a yearly meeting at each campus to update faculty liaisons on current programming at UCEAP, academic integration and course articulation efforts, as well as other study abroad issues affecting UC students. Interested faculty should contact UCEAP Associate Dean Jeff Stopple at jstopple@eap.ucop.edu. Our goal is to have one faculty liaison for each department or major on each of the nine undergraduate campuses, and to articulate the courses that could be taken abroad for major credit by UC students for each department or academic program on each campus.

UCEAP will also be setting up a parallel Advisor Liaison Corps (ALC), with a goal of one staff advisor per department or program on each of the 9 undergraduate campuses, to advance the same agenda and engage in the same processes. Interested Academic Advisors should contact Academic Coordinator Katie Arntsen at karntsen@eap.ucop.edu
