<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze the role of the International Student Mobility Program in enriching academic experiences and developing the competencies of students in the Islamic Da'wah Management Study Program at UINSI Samarinda. This study employed a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collected through in-depth interviews, documentation, and literature review. The data were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles and Huberman through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings show that the program provides academic experiences through seminars, sit-in classes, public speaking activities, leadership training, digital da'wah, and community development. The program also contributes to the development of students' communication, leadership, teamwork, cultural adaptation, and self-confidence. However, students experienced several challenges, including language barriers, differences in academic culture, limited mentoring, and information about activities that was sometimes provided at short notice. Nevertheless, these challenges became part of the learning process that encouraged independence, adaptability, and problem-solving skills. Therefore, the International Student Mobility Program plays a role in expanding students' academic experiences while supporting the development of competencies needed by Islamic Da'wah Management students in facing a global environment. ]]>
