About the Amman Center

Established in 2009, Columbia Global Center Amman is one of Columbia University’s first Global Centers, strategically located to bridge the University’s expertise with the unique opportunities and challenges of the Middle East. CGC Amman serves as a hub for academic collaboration, facilitating knowledge sharing that is both global in scope and deeply contextualized to the region.

Our programs and initiatives — including education, research, fellowships, and public engagement — are designed to foster interdisciplinary dialogue, practical approaches, and impactful collaborations. By leveraging our extensive network, we link Columbia University’s resources with regional expertise, turning ideas into action and fostering meaningful connections across borders and thematic areas.

Columbia Global Center Amman provides a dynamic platform for intellectual exchange and collaboration, advancing knowledge and creating enriching opportunities for engagement. We invite you to join our events, browse our media library, learn more through our latest articles, and to connect with us.
