Miko McFarland
Director of U.S. Partnerships & Operations
Miko works in the U.S. to develop and expand our Study Abroad programs. She holds a BA in Anthropology and a Master’s in International Affairs & Administration from Missouri State University.
Miko leads our efforts to expand and optimise our partnerships with U.S. universities, while also working closely with other departments to design Study Abroad programs that truly meet the needs of university students. For her, it’s not just about helping students study overseas, but also offering them a positive and transformative life experience.
In her words
“At university I was lucky to have professors that encouraged me to pursue my dreams, including studying abroad. I do this work because I know there are other students in the same position - I want to ‘return the favour’ and offer life-changing experiences to future generations.”
