Global Engagement Program

As Fairleigh Dickinson University continues on its mission in the preparation of world citizens, a new program has been developed that will enable students to track their journey in global learning and receive recognition for reaching significant levels of achievement in their activities.

The Global Engagement program (GEO) gives students the opportunity to document their involvement in global education and receive recognition during their participation in the program and at graduation. Students who successfully complete the program will receive a certificate of completion, a stole/pin to wear at commencement and a notation on their official transcript. This will offer students a way to demonstrate for employers, organizations and themselves their commitment to increased global learning through engagement.

The GEO program is open to FDU undergraduate students from all majors. Points can be earned through completion of globally themed courses and a wide variety of other international activities (e.g., language courses, study abroad, cultural events, global lectures, internships, community service, etc.). Students in the GEO Program will be able to participate at their own pace, and the structure of the program is very flexible, since students select their own point-earning activities. Students can begin in the program any time by completing the GEO program registration form. Once registered, they will be assigned to a faculty mentor who will help guide them in their journey in global education.
