Travel
About
The City University of New York (CUNY) developed these guidelines as a resource guide to assist faculty and staff in the review and approval requirements and in the planning and preparing for health and safety issues that may arise in the context of students participating in domestic and international travel programs. As best practices for the implementation and oversight of travel programs evolve, the offices that created the guidelines anticipate reviewing them on a regular basis and revising them as needed. Please check for updated versions and contact us with any questions. The Domestic and International Travel Guidelines were approved by the CUNY Board of Trustees on November 29, 2011.
