Division of Continuing and
International Education (DCIE) - Undergraduate
www.miami.edu/cstudies
The mission of the DCIE is to provide educational programs
to meet the needs of non-traditional students, including adults,
pre-college students, part-time students, international students,
and UM students who wish to study abroad.
Our primary goal is to promote the academic excellence of
the University of Miami and the expertise of the faculty through
outreach programs. By developing, marketing, and administering
short courses, seminars, workshops, lectures, and special
events, Continuing and International Education is able to
provide access to the public at large as well as to degree
seeking students. In addition, Continuing and International
Education coordinates weekend credit courses, administers
the Summer Session and Intersession, and provides counseling
and advising services for returning adult students. Continuing
and International Education is an agent for University outreach
in the community and serves the corporate world with professional
continuing education and workforce training.
The Division has three centers:
- Allen Hall, on the Coral Gables Campus
is the administrative headquarters for the DCIE and the
location for the Intensive Language Institute, International
Education and Exchange Programs, programs for adults returning
to school and preparing for career advancement and youth
programs.
- The University’s downtown center, together with
the City of Miami’s 5,000-seat auditorium and exhibition
hall, and the Hyatt Regency Hotel, comprise the University
of Miami/James L. Knight International Center.
- The Koubek Center, located in Little
Havana between Coral Gables and downtown Miami, has served
the local community since 1960, offering courses and certificates
in espanol. The Division also has a site at IMG Academies
in Bradenton, Florida providing educational opportunities
for the Bradenton/Sarasota/Tampa area and for young athletes
training at the IMG facility and their families.
