Who are the Global Ambassadors?
Global Ambassadors are the student-led force behind Global Engagement on campus. They are the future global leaders of tomorrow, who are interested in helping to plan and facilitate campus programs dedicated to cross-cultural sharing and campus internationalization. Global Ambassadors support the Office of Global Engagement in bringing global perspectives and insights home to Raleigh and providing their peer students with opportunities to advance their international knowledge, cultural understanding, skills and experience they need to succeed in the global economy. Over the course of their term, students will gain valuable hands-on leadership experience as well as receive career development training.
” I think the best way for students to engage globally at NC State is to interact as much as possible with the different international students and student organizations that promote international topics.”
– Enzo Molina (he/him/his), current Global Ambassador
