The Keith Sherin Global Leaders Program was founded with the notion that all college students should have access to international experiences. The program supports the study of TRIO college students with demonstrated leadership skills in a three to four-week program. Since 2000, more than 400 low-income, first-generation college students and students with disabilities have participated in COE-sponsored short-term and semester study abroad programs in Great Britain, the Netherlands, Senegal, South Africa and Spain. The scholarships are named in honor of Keith Sherin, former senior vice president, and chief financial officer of General Electric Co., who is committed to helping disadvantaged students obtain leadership experiences.
