The IEC welcomes students from over 100 countries; visiting faculty; and our partners in education from around the world.

The IEC is a warm and welcoming place where each member of the staff is knowledgeable and experienced to help you with issues related to your personal needs and academic goals. The IEC is also committed to the development of cross-cultural awareness for students and staff.

The IEC is more than an on-campus resource facility for international students. Its key goals include international involvement through projects and partnerships, and internationalizing our learning environment. To that end, we encourage Algonquin faculty and staff to travel internationally and to develop broader cultural perspectives.

The IEC is actively involved in training projects with private and public institutions, organizations and governments around the world. We have satellite campuses in India and Montenegro and one opening soon in Kuwait. Students from these campuses may transfer credits and complete their studies in Canada.
