Cawley Career Eduction Center

The Georgetown University Cawley Career Education Center teaches students how to identify career opportunities that fit with their values, interests, personality, and skills. It empowers students by providing resources designed to foster the development of career management skills that will serve them as competent professionals. It facilitates specialized programs and create relationships to connect students with employers and generate internship and full-time opportunities. The Cawley Career Education Center integrates the Jesuit tradition in its work with students by caring for and encouraging the development of the whole person.

Office of Global Education

The Office of Global Education (OGE) facilitates undergraduate credit-bearing study abroad opportunities. Serving Georgetown College, the Walsh School of Foreign Service, the McDonough School of Business, the School of Nursing, and the School of Health, OGE sends approximately 900 students abroad to earn academic credit in over 50 countries.

Center for Research & Fellowship

The Center for Research & Fellowship manages the Provost Undergraduate Research Presentation Awards (PURPAs) provides funds for undergraduates who want to extend their undergraduate research efforts beyond the Georgetown campus in either traditional or innovative ways, in the form of conference presentations, publications, or performances. This program offers multiple mechanisms for supporting thesis and independent research on campus, such as tutorials, GUROP, Raines, Kalorama, and various research fellowships. However, limited funds are available for the creative and expansive dissemination of the results of research, through, for example, conference presentations, publications, and performances.
