International Faculty

International Faculty Resource Guide

There exists a community of Rowan employees born outside the United States who meet semi-regularly to support one another in their private and professional lives. They are a diverse group of people who have been at Rowan for different lengths of time but find common ground in their international background.

The group has compiled this digital handbook for incoming and existing faculty and staff. Among other resources, it provides information to help with your transition to living and working in the United States and New Jersey, including visa programs, housing, finances, transportation, healthcare, recreation, and childcare. They are also planning for some cultural events and will be meeting virtually most months just to stay in touch.
