About Cuba TIES 2017 (TIES III)

Registration for the 3rd Workshop of Strategic Alliances for the Internationalization of Higher Education (TIES III) is now open! Block off your calendars for the week of October 23 through the 27th.

For the 3rd year in a row TIES III welcomes presenters from all over the world. We have expanded on our main themes of Internationalization, Networking and Local Development to increase the diversity of discussion and to stimulate innovative collaboration.

This year we are pleased to integrate the 1st International Symposium on Language, Culture and Communications (“Pearlanguage Symposium“) in honor of the late Dr. Dolores Corona and the 200th anniversary of the founding of the city of Cienfuegos. The Pearlanguage symposium will explore diverse topics related language learning and its impact on university and community development.

The deadline to submit your abstracts was July 15. Click here for details on the call or papers.

You will want to visit our exhibit hall so you can learn about Cuban institutions of higher education and community organizations. This can also be an additional opportunity for you to showcase your institution or organization and attract the attention of Cuban participants.

Browse through this site to see and learn more – then quickly register as space is limited. We look forward to seeing you in the “Pearl of the South” this October.

Un abrazo,

WHAT OTHERS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT TIES 2015

  • Attending the 1st Annual Workshop for the Internationalization of Higher Education (TIES 2015) organized by Civitas Global Education Services and hosted by Universidad de Cienfuegos.

    The event was very productive in providing first hand insight about educational initiatives in Cuba as well as the interest of US institutions. It was quite interesting to hear about

    Collaboration Cuban institutions have had with Argentina, Ecuadorian and European Institutions. The event served as an excellent opportunity to become familiar with

    Cuban institutions for those interested in establishing collaboration as diplomatic ties between the US and Cub may allow for the re-establishment of education related collaboration.

  • I attended TIES 2015 conference and not only did I meet great colleagues from across the USA, who have become friends, but Hamline walked away with great new partners in Cienfuegos that we are simply thrilled to be working along side. Our visit resulted in a January, 2017 course and March, 2017 choir tour. We are looking forward to deepening this relationship with faculty, staff and student exchange in the near future. Of course, none of this would have happened without the great work and advice of Civitas GES. TIES, 2015 was an incredible success!

    Kari Richtsmeier, PhD, Director, International and Off-Campus Programs, Hamline University

  • I found the TIES conference to be a wonderful venue for establishing relationships across institutions and individuals. The organizers were efficient, responsive, and well prepared to handle a large, diverse group of international educators.

    Dr. Alvin Wang, Dean, The Burnett Honors College, University of Central Florida

  • Attending TIES 2015 was my first Cuban experience and it exceeded my expectations: a diverse mix participants (US and Cuban institutions as well as government representatives), a variety of presentations, and an urban experience outside of Havana. Overall, a hospitable and well-organized conference event. TIES 2015 spoke to International Educators and faculty and administrators from a range of academic disciplines (STEM, Humanities, Education, etc.) and provided the vehicle for educators from Cuba and America interested in the region to spend time together. It truly was a priceless experience.
