Working with International Staff and Students

Overview

NC State is a welcoming and supportive environment for all. Therefore, as an institution, we must provide an accessible and empowering environment so all members of the Wolfpack community feel equally respected, valued and supported in every corner of campus.

However, due to federal law, there will be occasions when faculty, students, and scholars who are foreign persons must be excluded from access to certain items and technical data where their inclusion would violate export control regulations. If such a situation occurs, the Export Controls Office will work with the appropriate personnel and department to ensure reasonable controls are in place, often with the implementation of a Technology Control Plan.

Restricted from Access Examples

While uncommon, here are a few examples when foreign persons may be restricted from access:

• Sponsored projects when the sponsor has control or approval rights for the release of project information or the publishing of research results.
• Confidential or proprietary information of a technical nature provided under the protection of a non-disclosure agreement, confidentiality agreement or research project agreement
• Access to controlled software
• Access to controlled equipment
