Getting Started
Programs
Faculty from KIIS Full-Member Consortium Institutions are invited to apply to teach on KIIS Summer or Winter programs. The application deadline is approximately 15 months ahead of program departure to allow time for program promotion and student recruitment (e.g. October 15, 2023, to teach on a 2024-2025 Winter program, or March 1, 2024, to teach on a 2025 Summer program).
- Summer programs typically last four weeks, and faculty teach two courses abroad.
- Winter programs are two weeks, and faculty teach one course abroad.

“I love teaching and learning in a culture outside the United States. Tanzania especially provides a wonderful opportunity for students (and me) to evolve into people who understand the beauty and richness of our diverse world. We also realize that different experiences provide powerful learning moments.”
– Paul Clark, University of Louisville Nursing Professor, KIIS Tanzania Faculty
