Office of Global Affairs
The Office of Global Affairs (OGA) was created in 2007 to enhance collaboration between the Brandeis community and support international activities, programs, research and service. The OGA will build connections between the University's many ongoing activities in the international arena, strengthen the public profile of our global programs, identify new resources for international projects, and develop a strategic vision for "Global Brandeis."
With the Office of Communications, the OGA produces and maintains this Global Brandeis web portal. In addition, the OGA coordinates the University's major overseas partnerships, including the Brandeis-Al-Quds partnership, a multi-year project funded by the Ford Foundation that links Brandeis with a Palestinian university.
The OGA was established by the Provost following one of the suggestions of an ad hoc group of faculty and administrators convened in spring 2006 to consider the strengths and challenges of "Brandeis as a Global Institution." More information on the work of this ad hoc group can be found at www.brandeis.edu/provost/.
