The Global Community
Dallas Baptist University’s Global Community is a network of like-minded international schools that together are striving to produce the next generation of leaders. The world is in desperate need of leaders who seek to serve rather than be served, whose love for their fellow man compels them to build their communities and make the world a better place. The lack of leaders worldwide has confronted us, and we have sensed a compelling call to serve as a connector amongst our like-minded partners to empower those around the world. We know with unity comes strength, so as a University, we launched the Global Community to engage, equip, and empower our partner institutions through educational resources and leadership training. Through membership in our consortium, your institution will have access to many resources and join a global network of schools!
BECOME A PARTNER
Our partnership model seeks to develop and strengthen organizations around the world through global partnerships to address current challenges. Becoming a member of DBU's Global Community gives an organization access to DBU's diverse network of global partners, educational expertise, and leadership training to support both your students and faculty.
Membership is formalized through the signing of a partnership agreement with one of our DBU representatives. Interested schools must complete an application for partnership and return the application to global@dbu.edu.
