2. Leading as a Partnership University

Icon that represents Partnership


The University of Guam touches all parts of community life — partnering with organizations and institutions region-wide to improve health care, education, natural resources, public policy, cultural preservation, and more. The University will work to attain the Carnegie Community Engagement Classification, an elective classification that formally recognizes its commitment to the people in this region and that provides a roadmap for deepening its existing partnerships as well as developing new ones in all parts of the communities in Guam, the region, and beyond.

The classification will affirm to the people of Micronesia that the University of Guam invites collaboration on community challenges, and it will position the University to receive even more grant funding to pursue research and projects that benefit the community.

Prepare to apply for Carnegie Community Engagement Classification during the 2025 cycle.
