Berkeley Dado and Maria Banatao Center for GLOBE Details
The Dado and Maria Banatao Center for Global Learning and Outreach from Berkeley Engineering (GLOBE) was founded in 2005 under the vision of Dean Richard A. Newton and College of Engineering long-time friend and benefactors, Dado and Maria Banatao.Since 2005, GLOBE has helped College of Engineering departments, centers, and units engage with international partners, from the initial engagement with Singapore to establish the Singapore BEARS center to the creation of the Philippine-California Advanced Research Institutes (PCARI) to the Tsinghua-Berkeley Shenzhen Institute (TBSI).GLOBE has also worked with departments and faculty to establish visiting student and scholar programs with partner institutions with whom faculty have strong relationships, from such institutions as Nanyang Technological University in Singapore to Shanghai Tech University in China to Žilina University in the Republic of Slovakia.GLOBE also supports UC Berkeley students with various outgoing programs, from the ENGIN 187 course, "Global Engineering: The Challenges of Globalization and Technology Disruption," to the GLOBE Ambassadors study-travel program, to identification and facilitation of international internship opportunities.We welcome and support institutional inquiries and opportunities to partner with you.
