Instruction for Faculty Application for Short-Term Travel Study Checklist
All international travel related courses are extraordinary opportunities for our students. Foreign travel can
provide many rewards but also presents many risks. The procedures herein are driven primarily by Executive
Orders and are designed to promote a safe travel experience and reduce the likelihood or severity of an injury or
loss. These requirements are intended to help reduce risks to students, faculty and the University.
Links for all required documents and Department of State travel warnings can be found at:
http://www.csuci.edu/hr/internationaltravel.htm
In compliance with new requirements from CSU Risk Management Association, our insurance requirements
have changed. Whereas previously, students and faculty acquired their own foreign travel insurance through
Wells Fargo, CSUCI Risk Management will now secure Foreign Travel Liability Insurance for all University
392 courses. Lead faculty advisors are now required to prepare a spreadsheet that includes the following
information:
Purpose of travel
Name of each employee/student traveler
Dates of departure and return
Name of all faculty members traveling with students
Number of non-student, non-employees traveling with the student/employee
Any special needs
This spread sheet will be sent to Risk Management who will purchase policies for each traveler. Once those
policies are secured, Travel Assist cards for each traveler will be given to the Lead Faculty assigned. More
information regarding our new insurance requirements can be found at:
http://www.csuci.edu/hr/internationaltravel.htm
Please carefully read and initial each of the items on the checklist and attach copies as indicated. Once the trip is
completed, please shred your copies immediately. The Center for International Affairs Office will retain all
copies in our office for three years as per Chancellor’s Executive Order AA 2011-1.
Submit this form along with all necessary documentation to the Program Support Coordinator 30 days prior to
your departure date.
