Global Access Project

WestConn is one of 11 universities across the country chosen to participate in a pilot project resulting from a partnership between the American Association of State Colleges and Universities (AASCU) and the U.S. Department of State. The "Global Access Project" (GAP) aims to increase American students' understanding of international affairs while promoting awareness about careers in international relations.

WCSU serves as the central repository for information contributed to and produced by the GAP partner institutions.  The videos listed below are the beginning of an effort to make these materials accessible to the partner universities and other interested parties.
