Global Scholars Program<br />

Creighton’s Global Scholars Program is a four-year<br />

educational and professional development program. It is<br />

designed to immerse select students in a variety of cultures<br />

for a rich academic, social and service experience. Students<br />

build networks with other students, faculty and alumni from<br />

around the world.<br />

Through language study, specialized coursework, servicelearning,<br />

research, internships and interaction with leaders<br />

in the global community, Creighton Global Scholars will<br />

become experienced global citizens, ready for employment<br />

in international organizations upon graduation.<br />

International Student and Scholar Services<br />

Creighton University is home to a diverse population with<br />

representation from countries all around the globe.<br />

ISSS serves all international students and scholars and<br />

their families.<br />

GEO is proud to offer Global Ambassador Program, which<br />

is a mentorship program created by ISSS, the SLIC, and the<br />

CIC, in which current Creighton students (either domestic<br />

or international) are assigned to incoming international<br />

students to assist as a friend and resource in their<br />

acclimation process.<br />

Ambassadors attend both social and academic workshops<br />

with the new students, as well as off-campus excursions in<br />

Omaha. This program is rooted in experiential discovery. By<br />

breaking down barriers, students learn from one another.<br />

Where do I begin?<br />

1. Attend a “Getting Started” session in the Global<br />

Engagement Office (every Friday at 12:30 p.m.).<br />

2. Talk to your academic advisor right away. When creating<br />

your four-year plan, talk with your advisor about preparing<br />

for a semester abroad, and select courses accordingly.<br />

3. Explore program options. Talk with peer advisors<br />

from the GEO about their experiences as Creighton<br />

students abroad, and find out more about which<br />

program and location best fits your goals. Program<br />

searches and sample course plans are available on<br />

the Study Abroad website.<br />

4. Meet with a global programs coordinator. Office hours<br />

are listed on the website, or an appointment can be made<br />

through Creighton Connect or by calling 402.280.2221.<br />
