About the UCGT

The Undergraduate Committee on Global Thought (UCGT) is an opportunity for Columbia’s undergraduate students to gain access to distinguished scholars and practitioners, from the Columbia community and beyond, whose work brings them to the forefront of global trends. The CGT faculty hope to encourage Columbia undergraduates to engage issues and consider broad and interdisciplinary solutions and methodologies in addressing them.

Students on the UCGT host conversations with faculty members and visiting scholars that are designed to resonate with the concerns of Columbia’s undergraduate community. These events are open to all undergraduates.
