Message from the Provost

It is my privilege and pleasure to welcome you to Galen University, Belize’s only private university!

At Galen, we pride ourselves on being dynamic and progressive, committed to excellence in education and research, and adhering to the principles of sustainable development. We believe that a university education is a vital preparation for life, and pride ourselves on offering an educational experience that is student-centered, experiential in approach, and steeped in service-learning.

Our transformative educational experiences produce ethical professionals with high emotional intelligence who are prepared to meet the demands of employers for the next decade.

We build Galen’s unique strengths by carefully selecting the most accomplished and successful professionals from the private, public and social sectors. These professors join our student development professionals to sustain a caring, engaging and transformative university culture in which students gain maximum opportunity to excel.

We are a small community, which allows us to give each student enough attention, challenges, and support to enhance their personal and professional development. Our environment empowers our students to identify their shortcomings and overcome them; as we like to put it, students get to unleash their inner champions!

I invite you to spend some time on our website to learn more about us! Please get in touch with our Admissions officers and arrange a personalized red carpet visit to get to know us first hand. In the meantime, take a moment and enjoy what we have prepared for you. I look forward to personally welcoming you to our Galen community.
