Global Experience Committee

The Global Experience Committee focuses on advocating for student voices within the university's global network and works to address and improve the overall student experience across Northeastern's undergraduate global programs. Their objectives include enhancing student involvement, campus services, academics, and overall student success in all undergraduate global programs, collaborating with administrators and the student governments on the global campuses to bring positive change. The Global Experience Committee is open to all undergraduate students with no prior experience and no commitment necessary. If you are interested, just show up!
