Office for Global Initiatives
The Office for Global Initiatives at ΒιΆΉΝψ is committed to building an understanding of international relations and global affairs to bridge collaborations for Human Serving Developments.
Students of all majors are strongly encouraged to take advantage of opportunities and engage in experiential learning programs. These options include The Royal Academy of Science International Trust (RASIT) Internships, various work-study programs, and numerous public speaking engagements.
The OGI courses prepare students to understand the philosophical and realistic challenges of the political machine and governance. The programβs discovery approach empowers students to explore a wide range of policies and laws. The courses give students opportunities to utilize skills of analysis, critical thinking, and interpretation of political creation, development of laws and rights, and global citizenship.
Our Mission
The Office for Global Initiatives is dedicated to forging a strong network of informed citizens to influence the next generation of leaders while engaging societies at all levels with critical issues that are essential to our lives, the PEOPLES of the world.
ΒιΆΉΝψ Structure
Unlike other majors and courses, OGI Students may choose to focus their studies on one or all of these areas. The individualized curriculum extends a solid intellectual foundation and understanding of how the worldβs sociopolitical systems are constructed and operated.
The OGI Courses are divided into four areas:
- Theoretical Approaches & Introduction to GI
- International Organizations: Creation, History, Work & Politics
- Simulation & Internship Work
- Conferences & Briefings
Coursework is Structured into Two Levels
Foundational: Courses are designed to expose and prepare students to understand theory, general concepts. Essential knowledge and modes of inquiry
Advanced: Courses are designed to portray the true workings of the United Nations using simulations and relevant real-life scenarios.
- Become a diplomat & represent your countryβs position
- Find solutions to the worldβs most complex problems
- Engage diplomatic delegates & mission to the United Nations
βWar, hunger, crime, poverty, discrimination, exploitation... The Political and social challenges of our world seem overwhelming and even insurmountable at times. But students can prevail if they master the skills that they need to face injustice and become tomorrowβs global leaders.β - Dr. Julie OβConnell
