UC Berkeley faculty and staff are invited to attend the next Berkeley International Group meeting to learn more about campus-wide international updates from the Global Engagement Office, including new partnership development resources, clarification on campus-wide procedures for international MOUs, a new campus-wide international partnership database (in collaboration with other UCs), and more.
Global Engagement Office mission:
We believe that eliminating barriers between institutions here and abroad is essential to creating new knowledge and to exploring innovative solutions to the world's most pressing problems. We work to achieve this by extending Berkeley's global reach through international research and institutional collaborations.
The Global Engagement Office facilitates and coordinates global engagement at UC Berkeley by:
- Serving as a central hub for global activity and clearinghouse for international resources.
- Bridging international conversations across campus through the International Activities Coordination Group (IACG) and the Berkeley International Group (BIG).
- Liaising with international partners to facilitate engagement with campus units.
- Hosting and connecting international delegations to UC Berkeley faculty and staff.
- Advising units on best practices and guidelines to ensure the success and sustainability of international partnerships.
