Congratulations to Hyun-Sook Kang, associate professor Education Policy, Organization & Leadership, who has been elected to two separate positions within the Comparative and International Education Society (CIES).
Kang was elected to the CIES board of directors, where she will serve as treasurer.
She will also serve as the chair-elect of the Study Abroad and International Students SIG. She was recently awarded a Best Article Award from that SIG, recognizing her publication "Internationalising an Engineering Group Project Course: an Intercultural Contact Study."
From cross-disciplinary perspectives, CIES members explore a variety of educational issues, from early childhood and primary schooling to higher education and non-formal learning environments. Our members also compare various topics, such as inequalities across gender, ethnicity, language, and socioeconomic status, or the relationship between education and cultural processes, democratization, economic development, globalization, and political conflict.
