Travel

The University provides a comprehensive insurance program for authorized travelers including medical, security and natural disaster evacuation up to $500,000 per event. Emergency contact information and other details regarding this insurance package (relevant to KU Lawrence Campus, KU Medical Center and their respective reporting units) can be found on the KU Human Resources site. In order to trigger enrollment in this travel insurance, all procedures for registering your international professional or educational travel should be followed, details of which can be found at International Affairs (KU Lawrence Campus) or at the Office of International Programs (KUMC). 

In addition to travel insurance, it is also important to note that travel to certain countries for professional purposes could be denied due to U.S. State Department travel warnings. Whenever planning an international trip, it’s essential that departments/travelers work through International Affairs (KU Lawrence Campus) or International Programs (KUMC) and the Office of Global Operations and Security.
