International Education Week - Celebrate with us!
Lakehead International (LUI) is excited and proud to host International Education Week (IEW), Nov. 17 to 21, 2025. This annual event is celebrated around the world and provides an opportunity to showcase the cultural diversity of our wonderful international student population, inform the Lakehead community about our efforts to internationalize Lakehead’s campuses and communities, and highlight the importance of international education.
Interactive activities and sessions hosted by the staff, faculty, and students are designed to enlighten participants, celebrate cultural diversity, and introduce opportunities for internationalization through study and work abroad. In keeping with our vision to develop inter-culturally competent and socially engaged leaders through transformative global experiences, LUI is working hard to honour the many cultures that make our communities so vibrant, and to engage in exciting knowledge-sharing and skill-building.
We want to encourage all members of the Lakehead community to get involved with IEW 2025 and celebrate our amazing international students and campuses. Check out the full schedule of events here.
