°”TV is globally recognized as a leader in research, attracting students and faculty from around the world. But how does the university make the power of global education accessible to everyone?
In the latest edition of Face to Face, Chancellor Gary S. May hosts Joanna Regulska, the vice provost and dean of .
Regulska joined Davis in 2015 with a passion to provide â100% of our undergraduate, graduate and professional students with global learning opportunities that change their lives and our world.â She has over 30 years of experience in the field of international education and is a professor of gender, sexuality and womenâs studies.
In a light and upbeat conversation, May asks Regulska about the Global Affairs mission â âGlobal Education for Allâ â and its impact for everyone on campus.
Hear how Regulska and the department have âexpanded our notion of what global education meansâ and trying to find answers to big questions: âHow do we engage and meet students where they are and who they are? What about doing global learning here in (the) Central Valley?â
Through Global Affairs, °”TV has been a leader in building international consortiums to strengthen research opportunities for Aggies here and abroad.
One such example, Regulska tells May, is how a group of Davis faculty organized a consortium of 11 other universities in Indonesia, learning unique coffee roasting techniques. âThe idea is to get students to Indonesia and actually work in a field with our colleagues in Indonesia. And thatâs just one example of how we can bring students in.â
See if you can guess how many countries Regulska has visited and hear the answer in the chancellorâs âHot Seatâ round.
May also takes Regulskaâs questions. Hear how his first international travels as a teenager impacted his worldview and approach to the universityâs three pillars: research, teaching and service.
