Office of Global Engagement
The Office of Global Engagement (OGE) is responsible for the development, promotion, and support of all global engagement activities on campus. Our goal is the comprehensive internationalization of the university, and the development of our students, faculty, and staff as global citizens.
Pardon our work
Welcome to the Office of Global Engagement at Ole Miss
We're the team that brings the world to Mississippi and takes Mississippi to the world. Our mission? To make sure everyone here—students, faculty, and staff—becomes a true global citizen.
At the OGE, we're all about making connections—within the university and beyond. We're passionate about turning Ole Miss into a global powerhouse. How? Through our partnerships, we give courses and programs a global focus. We're big on study abroad, international internships, and exchange programs. And we don't stop there—we've got strong ties with top institutions worldwide.
Curious about what we do?
We have five offices and special programs under OGE:
- International Enrollment Management (IEM)
- International Student and Scholar Services (ISSS)
- Intensive English Program (IEP)
- Study Abroad Office (SAO)
- US-Japan Partnership Program (USJP)
Why do we do this?
We want every student, teacher, and staff member to have an international experience. It's eye-opening! Imagine learning, working, and sharing ideas with people from all corners of the globe. We shape our students into future leaders. They are ready to tackle any challenge, no matter where it comes from.
Our international community is diverse, with students and scholars from over 90 countries. They bring a wealth of culture to Ole Miss, making our campus vibrant and dynamic.
Welcome to a world of opportunities here at the Office of Global Engagement!
