International Relations Office
“BSU to the WORLD, the WORLD to BSU.”
The Lead Office in Facilitating and Coordinating International Partnerships for the University
These can be acquired through two kinds of exposure, cross-border and homebased internationalization, hence the motto “BSU to the World, the World to BSU”. Cross-border exposures bring BSU teachers, staff or students to other countries where they gain insights through face-to-face interaction and actual experiences with people in those places. Homebased exposures are those that bring people and/or ideas from overseas to interact with us here in the University.
