IIE’s first-ever series of higher education fairs in Latin America will be held in Spring 2013. This fair series, developed in partnership with the EducationUSA advising network in Brazil and Chile, is specially designed to recruit Latin American students interested in the Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) fields.

Since 1982, IIE’s Higher Education Fairs in Asia have served as effective, trustworthy platforms for accredited institutions to connect with serious students and build their brand around the world. This IIE/EducationUSA STEM Fair Series in Latin America provides a unique opportunity for accredited U.S. colleges and universities to expand and widen their presence in the region; and for students to learn about the wide variety of educational opportunities available to them in the United States. Colleges and universities interact face to face with thousands of qualified students, expand academic exchanges by partnering with local institutions, and network with local governmental officials, U.S. Consulate and Embassy staff, and EducationUSA advisers.
