How do Pamplin’s international programs fit with the university’s and Pamplin’s mission?

Virginia Tech’s motto, Ut Prosim, means That I May Serve.  Pamplin International Programs prepares our students to engage in practices that improve the human condition by spreading sustainable business practices and increasing the respect for social and natural environments.

• Pamplin programs have learning components that include personal reflection with a view to forming the student as a generous and effective citizen of a community, a nation, and the world.
• The aim of Pamplin’s Office of International Programs is for Pamplin students to graduate with an understanding of how business can shape the world for good. 
• We want students to desire, explore, and develop ways to increase not just the “bottom line” but the “triple bottom line”: revenue to their company and positive social impact and positive environmental impact.
