Global Education
What is Global Learning?
Global learning isn’t only a one-time international study abroad experience, (although study away can be life-changing!). Global learning is a combination of meaningful experiences and engaging with people from all over the world, collaborating across differences, and applying what is learned from those experiences and relationships to analyze and situate how and where we exist in the world.
At Oglethorpe this includes forging relationships with students on campus who hail from 30+ countries, engaging in programs offered by a range of multi-lingual and multi-cultural student organizations, programs and applied experiences through host of local and international partnerships, and more.
Everyone has opportunities to engage in global learning experiences at Oglethorpe!
