Abstract: Neoteric life styles have brought a great damage to nature and environment. Education in the wider sense will play an integral role in bringing the change required in distant ways. Science education with proper understanding can act as a vector for promotion of inter-connectivity globally. With the knowledge of Global Citizenship Education (GCE) students will learn to respect their own thoughts while taking an account of others points of view. The field of GCE is not restricted to any single subject. It is meant for all areas of the curriculum. This research work investigated the impacts of gender of students within global citizenship education with science teaching and investigated any difference in learning outcomes of students belonging to different groups based on their gender. Findings revealed the existence of difference in pre and post test marks which indicates that there is no difference in knowledge based, value based and citizenship based outcomes of boys and girls. It means that GCE course is effective for both the boys and girls irrespective of gender. Students accepted that curriculum promoting global citizenship has been absent from the spotlight.
