Abstract	Due to the impact of COVID-19 in 2020, higher education institutions swiftly shifted to online education and canceled all university sponsored travel, including field experiences and study abroad programs. Faculty transitioned to virtual activities to provide students essential access to international engagement. Immersive learning experiences promote cognitive gains and enhance student motivation. Using immersive learning to create virtual international experiences, students receive meaningful educational opportunities that further develop their global mindfulness levels and skills necessary for international marketability. Because immersive virtual experiences can provide international engagement to a wider range of students, this literature review explores how institutions incorporated them into their in-person curricula.
