Global Social
Hosted weekly, Global Socials are an opportunity to participate in fun cross-cultural activities, guest speeches and events, while mingling with fellow domestic and international students. This is a great opportunity to learn more and ask questions about the Global Engagement Program (GEP) and WMU Study Abroad. All are welcome!
Remember, these events can earn you GEP credit. Check your status any time in Experience WMU, accessible through your student portal or using the above link.
The Global Engagement Program is part of the Haenicke Institute for Global Education. Click here to learn more about the Institute and its offerings.
