Abstract	In our diverse and interconnected world, expanding students' horizons beyond the classrooms and laboratories of home campuses is increasingly important. Even some of the brightest honors students remain naïve to the causes and ramifications of current world events and lack the necessary intercultural skills to become effective ethical leaders with a global consciousness. They function extremely well in a generational zone of instant technology via iPhones, YouTube, and Facebook, but much of that merely contextualizes the ordinary, the bizarre, and the local, or momentarily provides glimpses into the often unreal world of pop culture. Developing the academic as well as intercultural competence of students is no longer a luxury: it is an obligation. Because the issues are broad and the models and the expertise of National Collegiate Honors Council members are widely and creatively varied, this monograph is an edited collection of scholarly essays highlighting critical components of quality honors international education. The collection is divided into three major sections: philosophical and pedagogical issues, programmatic elements and challenges, and practical tips from the annals of experienced faculty. These three sections are followed by a fourth section, which provides the details of eleven honors international courses that vary in length, location, and focus. These sample honors courses function as models for possible honors international courses in other venues; they can be tailored to fit the needs of a wide variety of honors programs and colleges. Following an introduction (Mary Kay Mulvaney and Kim Klein), the table of contents presents the following parts and chapters: Part I: Transformative Pedagogies, contains: Chapter 1: Academic Tourist or Scholar Abroad: Deep Approaches to Learning (Elizabeth Baigent); Chapter 2: Transformation through Study Abroad: Critical Thinking and World Citizenship (A.

Dean and Michael B. Jendzurski); Chapter 7: Developing Global Community-Based Undergraduate Research Projects (Mary Ann Studer). Part II: Programmatic Elements and Challenges contains: Chapter 8: Promoting a Largeness of Mind: Preparing Faculty for Honors International Field Experiences (Bernice Braid); Chapter 9: Overcoming Obstacles to Studying Abroad for Honors Students (Philip Krummrich and Kayla Burton); Chapter 10: Finding a Way: Addressing the Financial Challenges of Studying Abroad (Kim Klein and Mary Kay Mulvaney); Chapter 11: Mitigating the Challenges and Risks of International Travel: Preserving Opportunities for a Global Honors Experience (Mary Ann Studer); Chapter 12: Exploring the Synergies between Undergraduate Honors Theses and Study Abroad Experiences (Lisa Markus, Jill McKinney, and Anne M.
