A program at UlanBaatar University in Mongolia was recently closed. As Managing Director of Extended Studies, I was responsible for the overseas operation of these sites, which required visiting administration and faculty at the sites, evaluating the programs, monitoring financial arrangements and payments, negotiating contract renewals, leading joint efforts on student recruitment, and maintaining overall cooperation between each international site and the Colorado home campus. Visits to these sites were coordinated with marketing trips to other countries in the region.
