Professional Liaison

Most spouses of international graduate students and scholars are professionals in their home country, but due to visa restrictions they are unable to get a job here. These include doctors, computer specialists, teachers, television producers and directors, journalists, pharmacists, fashion designers, and many more. In this program, spouses are matched with a professional in the same occupation with whom they can discuss common experiences, values, and issues.

Volunteering in the program provides a short-term opportunity to meet a colleague from another country. The matching gives an opportunity for a one-time meeting, which may lead to further interaction. This is not an employment service. This service is for the SPOUSE, not for the Stanford student!

If you would like to meet one of these internationals, please contact the program chair.
