The Global Engagement Minor (GEM) is an exciting new opportunity that allows students to integrate their academic studies, co-curricular activities, and experiential learning in order to help them reflect on and further cultivate their intercultural development and global engagement.

During their sophomore through senior years, GEM students will complete an introductory seminar, global perspective coursework, language studies, off-campus cultural immersion, and a capstone seminar that will enable them to synthesize and reflect on the varied components of intercultural competence.

Interested students can apply by submitting a letter of interest and requesting a faculty recommendation. These materials should be emailed to Natalia Román Alicea, Assistant Director of Intercultural and Language Learning, at nromanalicea@wesleyan.edu. Students should also enroll in the gateway seminar: “CGST 205: Introduction to Global Engagement.”
