The College of Global Studies is housed in Roosevelt Quad and focuses on the ways in which the modern world has become a single global community and the implications of this fundamental shift for world prosperity and citizens' daily lives.
The college program will reflect on the ways in which all the elements of American culture — economics, leisure time, music, education, medicine, and even sports — are enhanced by our interchange with other countries. We will confront the problems associated with globalization — including ethnic friction, world inequality and war — and we will embrace the enriching experiences that globalization brings, including exotic cuisines, remarkable music, movies with global themes, and cross-cultural friendships. Becoming a global citizen will enhance and enrich the rewards of any profession you select, from engineering to medicine to literature to business.
The GLS International Student Mentor Program assists new international students who are members of the Undergraduate College of Global Studies (GLS) community transition academically, culturally, and socially to the United States and Stony Brook University (SBU).
