The QC Global website is dedicated to international education, research, scholarship and global engagement. The college supports an internationalized curriculum and helps develop opportunities for study, collaborate, and conduct research and internships abroad. We also welcome students and scholars from around the world to our campus. Queens is the World’s Borough, and we strive to reflect our home. The links below lead to the different offices and programs that support these efforts.

“We live in a wonderful world that is full of beauty, charm and adventure. There is no end to the adventures we can have if only we seek them with our eyes open.” – Jawaharlal Nehru

This office helps students interested in short or long term study in one of the 24 countries where Queens has contacts and exchanges. Where can you study?
