Our mission is to enrich the UM-Dearborn community through inclusive learning experiences that promote cross-cultural exchange. We are committed to building, supporting, and sustaining a culture of global inclusion through intercultural understanding. 

Student Assistants form an integral part of the OIA team. Each semester, the OIA employs current students to assist with many of the unit's responsibilities. Very much a part of the OIA's mission, the unit works to ensure that Student Assistants have a rewarding and enriching experience during their time at the OIA.

Simply put, the work of the OIA would not be possible without the contributions of our dedicated Student Assistants. 

Kirsten is an undergraduate student at UM-Dearborn, pursuing a BS degree in Cybersecurity & Information Assurance.
