In the classroom
Teaching International Students
The College of Business has seen a dramatic rise in international student enrollment, giving all students and faculty greater exposure to other cultures and business practices. However, international students also often come into the classroom with different expectations and assumptions of how a course may be conducted.
To help prepare faculty for these realities, the Center has collaborated with a number of DePaul offices to hold events with international students and discussions with other faculty members who have more experience teaching abroad.
Guest Speakers
The Center has facilitated many guest speakers for undergraduate and graduate classes. Examples include the German Minister of Economic Affairs, the Lithuanian Economic Minister, and Otto Group's VP of Human Resources.
If you are interested in integrating international activities in your classroom, such as hosting a Chicago-based International Trade Commissioner as a guest speaker, please contact DriehausCenter@depaul.edu.
Visiting Scholars
Driehaus College of Business and the Kellstadt Graduate School of Business host a limited number of visiting scholars on the Chicago campus each year. If you are interested in either a research or teaching opportunity, please submit a brief description of your desired collaboration and your curriculum vitae to DriehausCenter@depaul.edu.
