Outreach & Marketing Specialists help promote study abroad opportunities to students through web stories, social media, posters, tabling, and presentations. They also support their peers in exploring opportunities more in-depth, and preparing for departure. To this end, specialists make weekly social media posts, create print and electronic outreach materials using images and text, collect and narrate stories about study abroad and post these to the GEO website and other sites, and look for additional opportunities to promote and engage students with the college’s international education mission. The specialist also provides support for events, including study abroad orientations, workshops, and International Education Week.

Students applying to this role must have participated in the study abroad program previously.
