International Spouses, Partners & Families
- The Bechtel International Center (I-Center) extends a warm welcome to the spouses (wives or husbands) of international students and visiting scholars at Stanford. It is our hope that your time at Stanford will be an enriching experience for every member of your family. The I-Center, the Stanford campus, and the surrounding communities have much to offer apart from the academic dimension.
- While the scholar will be facing academic and research challenges, each spouse or partner will be facing a somewhat different, but also important, challenge in building and adjusting to a new life here. The following resources can be useful first steps in enriching your time here.
- Our Welcome Committee for International Families is available to answer questions of newcomers in the following languages: Arabic, Chinese, Czech, Dutch, English, Farsi, Finnish, French, German, Gujarati, Hebrew, Hindi, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, Slovak, Spanish, Swedish, Thai, Urdu, Vietnamese

Spouses' Circle
- Just because you're here for your better half doesn't mean you can't be active part of our center! Spouses' circle is for anyone who is here on behalf of their partners. This group is self-run by its members so programs are designed for the specific needs of the community. Build a family of your own here at UCLA and meet other spouses that can relate to what you're experiencing. Children are always welcome!
