International Engagement Events
Every semester, our office coordinates and organizes activities, trips and more for our students. Seasonal festivities, international holidays, U.S. experiences, trips around the Midwest and fun programming are at the heart of our activities. Check out what we have planned for the spring semester with our students.
Reach out to international@uni.edu with any questions or ideas for events!
Talk Tuesdays
We offer weekly Talk Tuesdays - an hour of conversation in English - for internationals to practice their conversational English skills and expand their understanding of U.S. American culture with the help of volunteers from UNI.
Talk Tuesdays are held in-person at Noon (12 p.m.). Each week, participants work in small groups to answer questions, discuss a topic, or play a game to improve their listening and speaking skills. Volunteers help facilitate conversation, answer vocabulary or contextual questions, and provide insight to U.S. American culture.
Coffee Hour
International Coffee Hour is a timeless tradition that invokes conversation, connection and FUN! Join us at our office, 113 Maucker Union, for coffee, tea, food, games and more every Friday from 4-5 p.m.
This year, we are coordinating and working with various offices, organizations and individuals on campus to bring themed and exciting Coffee Hour events to you!
