The Croft Institute for International Studies helps students and the University look out at new horizons to grow our knowledge and perspectives about the world beyond our borders. The Croft Institute raises the profile of the state through outreach programs and attracting new UM initiatives.
Today, you can invest in scholarships, study abroad experiences and faculty to help transform students’ lives, Mississippi and the world. Your support ensures that our students will have exceptional opportunities that propel them toward promising careers and meaningful lives!
Reasons for supporting the Croft Institute include:
- A degree from Croft is a stamp of approval in the global marketplace, a passport to show that students are ready for a worldwide career.
- We bring together outstanding students from Mississippi and other parts of the United States to immerse themselves in intensive study of the languages, cultures and economies of the world.
- We want our students to become global citizens – aware of the world and engaged with it – to prepare them for the rapidly changing and ever more globalized workplaces. We challenge our students and help them achieve excellence.
- Studying at Croft also means close mentoring relationships with the Croft professors, who share their knowledge and passion about the world.
- Croft has already graduated 520 students – with many working globally – and the Institute continues to stimulate internationalization.
