Baylor GLOBE
Our Mission
The purpose of the Global Link for Outreach and Building Equity (GLOBE) is to expose students to healthcare in our community and abroad. Global Health emphasizes healthcare equity for all people worldwide through advocacy, research, service, and more.
Student Team
The Baylor GLOBE initiative is a team of undergraduate students led by the Global Health Representative of the Prehealth TA Council. This group aims to foster a passion for global health within the Baylor community and provide students with opportunities to explore global health research, advocacy, and outreach initiatives, both on campus and beyond. Baylor GLOBE collaborates with on-campus organizations and the Office of Pre Health Studies to promote influential global health events. Additionally, the committee works closely with the Global Health Fellows, a cohort of students engaged in research within the global health field.
