International Embedded Courses

International Embedded Courses are courses taught at W&M with a significant international off-campus component. The course is primarily taught on campus and must meet the following criteria:

• Time off-campus must be dedicated to research or project-based learning
• The minimum week off-campus could be during a mid-semester break or at the end of a course prior to the start of the next term.
• Each course must include a reflective component that covers the time spent away
• Course would count as part of the regular teaching load of proposing faculty and therefore requires support from departmental chair.

A limited number of embedded courses will receive scholarship funding to support student participants. All faculty travel costs as well as a $1,250 faculty stipend will be covered for selected programs. An embedded course should be approved to be part of your normal teaching load.

For embedded programs in 2026-27, the deadline was February 2, 2026 (extended due to weather closing)

Applications for embedded program in 2027-28 will open in November 2026 with a deadline in January 2027.
