International Ambassadors serve the office of International Student Services during international student orientation week and throughout the year with additional programming events. The Ambassadors provide an enthusiastic commitment to international students.

International Ambassadors assist international students in their cultural and social adjustment to the UIS campus. The International Ambassadors are involved in many campus clubs and activities and are great resources for our students. You will see them around campus for events like Orientation, the International Festival, as well as many of the other programming activities offered by ISS.

Please see our Get Involved page for information on all current programming. They are supervised by the ISS Program Coordinator, Erika Suzuki, and work closely with her to help make ISS events a success.
