FSU celebrates latest cohort of global citizens
Twenty-five Florida State University students were awarded the Global Citizenship Certificate (GCC), including nine students who completed the certificate with honors, during a ceremony Friday, Dec. 6, in The Globe Auditorium.
The certificate program prepares students to succeed in the global workforce by helping them develop global and intercultural fluency, which helps them adapt to different environments, as well as critical thinking, problem-solving and intercultural communication skills.
The GCC is administered by FSU’s Center for Global Engagement with academic oversight from the College of Social Sciences and Public Policy.
“We live in a time in which we need graduates to go into the world with global perspectives and skill sets,” said Tim Chapin, dean of the College of Social Sciences and Public Policy. “The planet needs people that see themselves not as a resident of a specific country, but a member of the global community. This program promotes these outcomes with great success.”
