Center for Global Studies & International Education

The Center for Global Studies and International Education (CGSIE) is the institution's arm for facilitating the university-wide efforts to internationalize the curriculum across disciplines, in a fashion that is consistent with the President's vision of "Growing the Future and Leading the World!"

To achieve this goal, CGSIE serves as a gateway to the globalization of the local and regional communities and their minority populations. As well, the Center works collaboratively with academic departments to enhance student and faculty development through workshops, study abroad, internships, exchanges and other relevant international education programs.

Our Commitment to Internationalization

Globalization requires that institutions of higher education graduate globally- competent citizens and professionals. Morgan State is committed to doing this by broadening the scope of student, faculty, and staff awareness of the world in which they live, through travel, experiential and service learning, and collaborative international research at home and abroad. In a post 9/11 world, and for national security reasons, this undertaking becomes even more urgent.

CGSIE will provide each college, school and academic support units of the university with assistance in developing an international focus to their programs, and enable them to graduate globally savvy and competent professionals. The Center will also provide support and assistance for the following:

Study, Internship & Volunteer Abroad Programs

Student Community Service- Learning Activities in the U.S. and Abroad

Partnership for International Research and Education

International Exchange and Collaboration Agreements

International Faculty and Staff Development Initiatives

Faculty Research and Training Abroad
