| How UMAP Works As befits the diverse nature of the region, each UMAP member country has organized their UMAP participation differently. In many of the countries of this region, a central bureaucracy or the "peak body" responsible for international education administers the country secretariat. In some it is a combination of public and private interests. In more than one member country there is only one university resulting in a very different approach to membership than is required in larger countries such as the United States. For U.S. institutions, participation in UMAP will require becoming a member of U.S. UMAP. The U.S. UMAP consortium is organized and administered by The Laurasian Institution. To ensure that the program is responsive to the needs of U.S. colleges and universities broadly, an Advisory Board has been established which is made up of individuals representative of the diversity of U.S. institution types. At each member institution a UMAP Contact is named as the primary point of contact for all UMAP-related activities. |
