This report presents the results of a January 26-27, 1990, workshop organized by the National Association of Foreign Student Affairs (NAFSA) and the Winrock Institute for Agricultural Development to discuss ways to improve academic programs for international students studying in graduate agricultural disciplines. Participants were sponsored foreign graduate students, academic advisors from various agricultural disciplines, and international program administrators. Summaries of general workshop discussions are organized by category of participants. Action agenda recommendations include: the development of documentation to explain the role and activities of participant training contractors; creation of small research award programs to support early professional development in home countries; internationalization of United States universities' curricula in agriculture, incorporating relevance of agriculture education to home country situations; and the development of a central clearinghouse to provide relevant information and resources for international student advising.
