A collaboration between the Duke International Student Center (DISC), Office of Global Affairs (OGA), and Career Center, the Duke Global Fellows Program is an experiential learning and leadership program that develops students’ global competency and prepares them to be true global citizens who make positive impacts around them. The students in the program also serve as the “face” of Duke’s student population to visiting international scholars and guests.
This program is open to all Duke undergraduate students who will be enrolled in the academic year when the program is offered and can help you develop a global skill set with on-campus training and networking. No travel required! Please note that due to the in-person commitments, students are not able to participate in Global Fellows while they are studying abroad.
The Global Fellows Program is currently paused for Fall 2025. Check back soon or email intlstudents@duke.edu for more information!
