Supporting Notre Dame in its pursuit of being the leading global Catholic research university, on par with but distinct from the world’s best private universities, Notre Dame Global spans five continents, with active, externally funded research projects in more than 60 countries, just as many study abroad programs, an ever-growing international student population and global alumni base, and a network of 12 Notre Dame intellectual sites in 10 countries. Through the work of our local and global students, faculty, researchers, and friends the true spirit of this venerable institution—the relentless pursuit of truth, wherever it leads—comes to life in integrative learning experiences that develop global competencies and cultural understanding; collaborative and influential global research that changes lives; thoughtful partnerships that produce transformative engagement; and an inclusive team of global professionals that support it all.

Join us, as we put living at the center of learning, and learning at the center of life, gathering the best and brightest of our world, for the betterment of our planet, its people, and the University of Notre Dame.
