NC Scholars of Global Distinction

The NC Scholars of Global Distinction program is a partnership between community colleges in North Carolina and UNC World View. The program was developed to give you the global competencies and skills needed for our increasingly diverse workforce.

When you transfer to a four-year school or begin your career, the notation “Graduated with Global Distinction” on your transcript or resume will set you apart from others by showing that you have a more comprehensive understanding of global cultural, political and historical information.

Wayne Community College’s leadership and faculty are committed to develop and offer globally intensive courses and activities with the goal to create a truly global campus and to give you a world class education.

Program Requirements

• Complete at least 15 credit hours of globally intensive courses
