Welcome to the 26th Annual International Education Week (IEW) at Cal Poly Humboldt!
This week-long, internationally recognized, and completely free event, is a joint initiative of the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Department of Education. At Humboldt, we celebrate with over 30 presentations and events, including a dynamic keynote speaker, hands-on workshops, and global performances that connect our community to the broader world.
From learning how to study, work, or live abroad, to exploring Peace Corps opportunities, international volunteering, or careers with the U.S. State Department, IEW opens doors to new perspectives and life-changing experiences.
