Global Thought Experience

Global Thought Experience (GTE) is an experiential learning initiative sponsored by the Committee on Global Thought. The program enables Columbia undergraduate students to use knowledge and skills learned in the classroom to address pressing issues for communities in Global New York. Program testimonials from former GTE participants are available here.

“My time with GTE has left an indelible mark on my heart. I will carry the lessons learned and the connections made with me on my journey, and I’m excited to see how they will shape my future endeavors.” -Safiya O’Brien, GTE 2022-23

The GTE program is currently on hiatus and is not accepting applications. Please email the CGT Assistant Director of Academic Programs, Farryl Last, at fl2608@columbia.edu with any questions.
