Duke University Center for International and Global Studies

The Duke University Center for International and Global Studies (DUCIGS) promotes internationalization across the Duke University campus and beyond. We accomplish this by offering an innovative curriculum, supporting instruction in new languages, expanding international holdings in the Duke Library, fostering programs that explore global themes, bringing international visitors to campus, and providing travel support for graduate and undergraduate students’ research abroad, among other means.
