Peter J. Klassen, Director
International Programs
The International Programs Office is
responsible for leadership and
coordination of international study
abroad programs conducted by
California State University, Fresno.
The office is designed to assist faculty
and administrators in developing and
strengthening international educa-tion
efforts; disseminate information
about international study opportuni-ties;
encourage students to enroll in
international study programs; award
limited numbers of tuition waivers to
international students coming to
study in Fresno; and serve as an
information center for Fulbright
awards and other sources of support
for study abroad.
An advisory council works with the
director to assist in this task. A
resource center, maintained in the
International Programs Office,
provides international education
materials for faculty, staff, and
students, while a newsletter, Horizons
International, reports on latest
developments.
The university, in its Vision for the
21st Century: A Plan for Excellence,
set a goal to have 10 percent of
students participating in the study
abroad programs.
Several “semester abroad” programs
allow students to complete part of
their studies in other countries:
• The London Semester
• The China Semester
• The South Pacific Semester
In addition, students have a wide
range of study-abroad opportunities
through the CSU International
Programs and through the University
Studies Abroad Consortium. (See
International Programs under the
Special Programs section on pages
462-464.)
In its determination to enhance
global understanding, California
State University, Fresno encourages
international academic exchange and
cooperation. The university also has
partnerships with a number of
universities around the globe.
At the present time, the university
maintains academic cooperative
programs, including, in most
instances, student exchanges, with
the following institutions:
• University of Central Lancashire,
United Kingdom
• University of Leeds, United
Kingdom
• University of Münster, Germany
• University of Stuttgart, Germany
• Copernicus University, Poland
• University of Gdansk, Poland
• Belarusian State University,
Belarus
• Yerevan State University, Armenia

Korea
• University of the Philippines
• University of Guanajuato, Mexico
• University of Torreon, Mexico
• Instituto Tecnologico y de
Estudios Superiores de Monterey,
Mexico
• University of Seville and Univer-sity
of Barcelona, Spain
In some instances, instruction is
available in English. Usually, fluency
in the language of the country is
required. University cooperative
arrangements allow waiver of tuition
in most instances. In addition,
various other benefits are available
because of cooperative agreements. v
