A university with global impact and reach.

Internationally Engaged, Global Impact

Oregon State University strives to prepare graduates for a world that is internationally diverse and globally interconnected, to provide welcoming communities on our campuses for students and employees from around the world, to engage with distinguished international partners in pursuit of our teaching and research goals, and to contribute new knowledge and solutions that help address challenges of global consequence. These priorities are advanced by the Office of the Provost and articulated in the university’s latest International Action Plan, which aligns with OSU’s current strategic plan, Prosperity Widely Shared.
