The Directorate of Global Engagement (DUHS) was established in July 2012 as a Directorate to facilitate mutually beneficial international academic exchange and collaboration between Dow University of Health Sciences (DUHS) and International Universities or Institutions.

Since its beginning, Directorate of Global Engagement (DUHS) has been working proactively to establish international partners by assisting and facilitating the drawing up of MoUs and agreements between institutions. In addition, it facilitates the development of proposals for collaboration and provides the required administrative support to operationalize these partnerships.
