=== Institute for Global Engagement ===
The Institute for Global Engagement was founded at DBU in 2015 to be "a Christian, non-partisan think tank dedicated to addressing issues in the public square with biblical distinctiveness" and to be "a moral and spiritual catalyst for renewal in our culture."  The goal of the institute is to be interdisciplinary in bringing together experts and practitioners from a variety of fields to address issues from a distinctively Christian worldview.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.dbu.edu/ige/about.html|title=About {{!}} The Institute for Global Engagement {{!}} Dallas Baptist University|website=www.dbu.edu|access-date=2020-01-11}}</ref> Since its founding, the IGE has held several seminars and lectures featuring a variety of individuals, including author [[Eric Metaxas]], former presidential speech writer [[Michael Gerson]], political commentator [[Matthew Dowd]], former UN Ambassador [[Sam Brownback|Samuel Brownback]], and former [[United States Secretary of Defense|Secretary of Defense]] Gen.
