​Project Atlas

Project Atlas® is a global research initiative that disseminates comparable student mobility data, conducts studies on academic migration and the internationalization of higher education, and provides customized workshops and research to strengthen the collection of mobility data around the world. Project Atlas also serves as a clearinghouse of curated research, events and resources related to student mobility. Project Atlas has been supported by the Ford Foundation, the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA) of the United States Department of State, IIE, and country partners.
