Reporting to the Associate Vice President for Student Affairs, the Director will provide vision, leadership, and operational oversight for one of the University's most visible and impactful centers, supporting international education, intercultural engagement, and global learning.

Located in the capital city of Tallahassee,a premier public research university and Carnegie R1 institution, Florida State University enrolls more than 46,000 students and is nationally recognized for academic excellence and an exceptional student experience. FSU is deeply committed to preparing students for success in an interconnected world through global engagement, international partnerships, and cross-cultural learning opportunities.

The Center for Global Engagement plays a central role in advancing the University's internationalization efforts. Serving more than 2,400 international students and over 250 scholars and faculty, the Center provides immigration advising and compliance services, global exchange programs, the Global Citizenship Certificate, and a wide range of intercultural and educational initiatives. Through signature programs, events, and partnerships, CGE fosters meaningful intercultural connections, global awareness, and student engagement across the University community.

The Director provides leadership for the Center for Global Engagement, overseeing International Student and Scholar Services, Global Exchanges, the Global Citizenship Certificate, and intercultural programs.
