The Center for Urban and Global Studies
(CUGS) is the first center of its kind at a top liberal arts college in
the United States, and it offers curricular opportunities and research
programs where students and faculty work together to better understand
our new global society.
By integrating urban and global programs with
study in the classroom and its cities—from Trinity’s host city of
Hartford to cities throughout the world—the center plays a central role
in the College’s educational mission.
