The Mario Einaudi Center for International Studies is Cornell’s hub for campus engagement and global thinking and action.
The Einaudi Center has helped students and scholars cross borders of language, culture, nationality, and academic discipline for more than 60 years. Today Cornell is one of the most international universities in the world.
Mission
The center organizes, stimulates, and supports research, teaching, and outreach programs and activities to enhance graduate and undergraduate education and to prepare Cornellians to contribute in the international sphere.
Our Programs
Nine regional and thematic programs are the heart of the Einaudi Center. Our programs promote new ways of understanding people and places, as we work together across Cornell and around the world to tackle transnational challenges like migration, food security, and social justice.
1991: In honor of its founding director, the center becomes the Mario Einaudi Center for International Studies.
1992: The Institute for European Studies is launched as a home for both Eastern and Western European studies, merging earlier initiatives founded in the 1960s and ’70s.
