Global Studies Consortium

We are a group of graduate programs in global studies seeking to collaborate in teaching and research. The consortium is open to any academic program in the world that offers a graduate M.A., M.Sc., M.Phil., or Ph.D. related to global studies.

At least 40 universities have participated in our meetings.

We aim to:

• share curricula and ideas about teaching programs
• exchange teaching materials, including lectures and reading lists
• facilitate cooperative teaching projects, such as distance learning, on both bilateral and multilateral levels
• survey student career paths
• share information about employment and internships for students
• encourage student and faculty exchange agreements

We first met in Santa Barbara in 2007, where we wrote our mission statement . Since then we have held meetings in Tokyo in 2008, Leipzig in 2009,  Santa Barbara again in 2010, and Shanghai in 2011. We are looking forward to our next gathering in Melbourne on 14-16 June 2012.
