The mission of LCC International Programs is to foster understanding and knowledge of the world through meaningful connections across cultures. We aim to make LCC a place where we better understand ourselves, our context in the larger world, and the positive impacts we can make that transcend borders.

  • Create an environment where LCC students will gain the skills to participate in a global workforce
  • Foster a sense of identity of meaning within the context of the larger world
  • Increase cross-cultural competency across the LCC community
  • Support and advocate for international students in their social and academic development
