Abstract:
Colleges of Agriculture are becoming increasingly involved in international development projects. Finding competent faculty willing to undertake an international assignment is a major undertaking. An improved understanding of factors which are important to a person's decision to accept an international assignment will provide useful information for recruitment. Accordingly, agriculture faculty from the Pacific Northwest land-grant universities were surveyed to determine those factors important to their decision to accept or reject assignment on an international project.
