The Interdisciplinary Center for the Study of Global Change (ICGC), as part of the Global Programs and Strategy (GPS) Alliance at the University of Minnesota, seeks to foster an interdisciplinary and cross-cultural community of faculty and graduate students committed to studying global change, especially as seen in the global south; addressing issues of peace, conflict, security, social and environmental change, justice, human rights, development and international cooperation. We understand the global south to include communities in Asia, Africa, and Latin America as well as communities in North America, Europe and elsewhere experiencing marginalization or living precariously in the context of global change. We also emphasize transnational knowledge flows and production. ICGC’s philosophy focuses on interdisciplinary perspectives, globally engaged scholarship, and a recognition of the necessary connection of diversity and academic excellence.

ICGC provides intellectual and financial support for more than seventy graduate and professional students in several colleges of the University of Minnesota. Beyond our graduate fellowships (ICGC Scholar, ICGC Mellon Scholar, and ICGC Compton Scholar awards), the Center also provides enabling small grants to graduate and professional students for international internships and pre-dissertation fieldwork in the global south. Interdisciplinary faculty-student seminars and workshop series are organized around major theoretical, comparative and methodological issues related to the global south; and formal public lectures and informal discussion series are presented by scholars, policy makers and activists addressing issues related to themes of the Center. In partnership with the Office of the Vice President for Research, ICGC also supports interdisciplinary research circles on various themes, currently including children’s lives and livelihoods, water governance and access in the global south, transnational knowledge production, global urbanisms, and transborder conversations on race, caste and indigeneity.

ICGC SPRING DINNER | MAY 8, 2014

In addition, ICGC offers two formal graduate education programs. Our graduate minor in Development Studies and Social Change offers a series of seminars on interdisciplinary approaches to global change, scholarship and public responsibility, international research methods and ethics, and related themes. ICGC also jointly offers the Master of International Development Practice degree program with the Humphrey School of Public Affairs and several other participating academic units. Our graduate courses, research initiatives and program governance are supported by an interdisciplinary group of seventy-five affiliated faculty members from six colleges and schools across campus.

ICGC’s primary academic partner units on the University of Minnesota campus include the Colleges of Liberal Arts, Biological Sciences, Education and Human Development, and Food, Agricultural and Natural Resource Sciences, the School of Public Health and the Humphrey School of Public Affairs. ICGC has a continuing collaboration in graduate education and faculty research with the University of the Western Cape (UWC). This partnership, based at the UWC Centre for Humanities Research and supported by grants from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, includes faculty and student exchange as well as joint seminars, collaborative research and publishing initiatives. The Compton Foundation also provides ongoing support for our ICGC Compton Scholars fellowships. The Office of the Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs and Provost, the Office of the Vice President for Research, the Office for Equity and Diversity, and the Office of the Associate Vice President and Dean of International Programs also provide crucial support for ICGC students and faculty.
