Faculty and staff exchange is an integral component of Towson University's internationalization effort. Faculty exchanges provide professors a unique opportunity to further their own professional development and scholarly research. Staff members can take advantage of exchange opportunities to work in related departments at TU partner institutions. There are possibilities for exchange in a dozen countries and more than 25 international partner universities. Full-time, tenure-track faculty may spend a semester, year or short-term period abroad while staff exchanges are normally 4 weeks in length. Ideally, these exchanges will result in collaborative projects and ongoing exchanges of information.
