Worldwide Growth Fund, Inc. 

The Fund

LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN

Dear Shareholder:

We are pleased to present this semiannual report for Dreyfus Premier Worldwide Growth Fund, Inc., covering the six-month period from November 1, 2005, through April 30, 2006.

International stock markets have continued to rally, boosted by continued expectations for low inflation, relatively benign monetary policies among central banks and the recovery of domestic consumption in Japan and Europe. Although stock prices have increased over the past few years, so have earnings for most international companies, keeping valuations at what we believe to be reasonable levels.

Our international portfolio managers report that they are beginning to see early signs of a potentially broader market advance, beyond merely the energy and mining sectors that have led the rally so far. In Europe, high-profile mergers and acquisitions in the financial services, pharmaceuticals and industrials sectors have supported a generally upbeat economic outlook. While Japan recently has lagged Europe, greater economic stability and liquidity have brought an end to price deflation, which may support further gains if interest rates rise only moderately as the global economic cycle matures. As always, we urge you to discuss with your financial advisor the potential implications of these possibilities on your investments.

For information about how the fund performed, as well as market perspectives, we have provided a Discussion of Fund Performance given by the fund’s portfolio manager.

Thank you for your continued confidence and support.

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

Fayez Sarofim, Portfolio Manager

Fayez Sarofim & Co., Sub-Investment Adviser

How did Dreyfus Premier Worldwide Growth Fund, Inc. perform relative to its benchmark?

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2006, the fund produced total returns of 9.97% for Class A shares, 9.51% for Class B shares, 9.56% for Class C shares, 9.98% for Class R shares and 9.81% for Class T shares.¹ In comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Morgan Stanley Capital International World Index (“MSCI World Index”), provided a 16.01% total return.²

Despite concerns regarding resurgent energy prices and rising interest rates during the reporting period, stock prices rose due to sustained global economic growth and strong corporate earnings. However, the fund’s returns underperformed the benchmark, primarily due to weakness among large consumer staples and technology stocks, which remained out of favor among most investors.

What is the fund’s investment approach?

The fund invests primarily in large, well-established, multinational companies that we believe are well-positioned to weather difficult economic climates and thrive during favorable times.We focus on purchasing large-cap, “blue-chip” stocks at a price we consider to be justified by a company’s fundamentals. The result is a portfolio of stocks of prominent companies selected for their sustained patterns of profitability, strong balance sheets, expanding global presence and above-average earnings growth potential.

The fund also pursues a “buy-and-hold” investment strategy, which generally has resulted in an annual portfolio turnover of below 15%. In following this strategy, we typically buy and sell relatively few stocks during the course of the year, which may help to reduce investors’ tax liabilities and the fund’s trading costs.³

The Fund 3

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE (continued)

What other factors influenced the fund’s performance?

Returns from large-cap growth stocks remained limited by concerns regarding the potentially eroding effects of rising interest rates and high energy prices on future financial results. In addition, the fund was adversely affected by investors’ continued preference for smaller, lower-quality companies, which have benefited greatly from the low interest rates of the past few years.As interest rates have risen substantially over the past two years, we believe these companies’ earnings growth will be negatively impacted by higher borrowing and energy costs. Conversely, the large, blue-chip companies we favor generally have track records of steady earnings and dividend growth even in higher interest rate environments. What’s more, they recently have been selling at attractively low valuations compared to historical norms. Yet, blue-chip, multinational stocks have remained out of favor among investors.

The fund’s consumer staples holdings were among its greatest detractors from performance during the reporting period. U.S. pharmacy chain Walgreen declined on news of higher-than-expected expenses related to the new Medicare Part D prescription drug benefit, which eroded same-store sales growth. However, the company’s earnings have remained on track, giving it a more compelling valuation, in our judgment. Similarly, global retailer Wal-Mart Stores’ stock price was hurt by controversy surrounding its labor practices and concerns that its customers’ purchasing power might be constrained by high gasoline costs. Finally, international food and tobacco giant Altria Group paused after advancing strongly in previous reporting periods as a proposed restructuring continues to be delayed by unresolved legal matters.

The fund’s results also were hindered by weakness among its technology holdings, which are concentrated in two of the sector’s leaders: software giant Microsoft and microprocessor maker Intel. Intel was hurt by weaker-than-expected earnings reports due to competitive pressures and lackluster customer demand, and Microsoft disappointed investors when it delayed the launch of the next generation of its popular software products.While the industrial sector fared generally well due to rising demand for manufactured goods from the emerging

4

markets, such as China, the fund’s returns fell short of the benchmark due to its relatively light exposure to the sector.

Better results from the fund’s consumer discretionary holdings enabled the fund to participate to a degree in the market’s rise. The sector’s returns were led by French luxury goods purveyor Christian Dior, whose prestigious brands continued to appeal to the fashion sense of affluent consumers in Japan, Europe and the United States. Similarly, cosmetics seller L’Oreal gained value after the arrival of a new chief executive and upon posting sales gains in Europe and various emerging markets. Finally, U.S. publisher McGraw-Hill Cos. was rewarded by investors when it achieved improved revenues and earnings from its Standard & Poor’s financial data and publishing subsidiary.

What is the fund’s current strategy?

Although the reporting period proved to be a difficult time for our “buy-and-hold” approach, we remain committed to our disciplined strategy of focusing on well-established, high-quality companies that we believe are poised to benefit from long-term trends.With U.S. interest rates nearing their peak for the current cycle and the global economy entering a more mature phase, we believe that investors’ appetite for risk may wane, and sentiment may begin to shift toward leading multinational companies with track records of consistent earnings and dividend growth.

1	Total return includes reinvestment of dividends and any capital gains paid, and does not take into
	consideration the maximum initial sales charges in the case of Class A and Class T shares, or the
	applicable contingent deferred sales charges imposed on redemptions in the case of Class B and
	Class C shares. Had these charges been reflected, returns would have been lower. Past performance
	is no guarantee of future results. Share price and investment return fluctuate such that upon
	redemption, fund shares may be worth more or less than their original cost.
2	SOURCE: LIPPER INC. — Reflects reinvestment of net dividends and, where applicable,
	capital gain distributions.The Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) World Index is an
	unmanaged index of global stock market performance, including the United States, Canada,
	Europe, Australia, New Zealand and the Far East.
3	Achieving tax efficiency is not a part of the fund’s investment objective, and there can be no
	guarantee that the fund will achieve any particular level of taxable distributions in future years. In
	periods when the manager has to sell significant amounts of securities (e.g., during periods of
	significant net redemptions or changes in index components) funds can be expected to be less tax
	efficient than during periods of more stable market conditions and asset flows.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

NOTE 1—Significant Accounting Policies:

Dreyfus Premier Worldwide Growth Fund, Inc. (the “fund”) is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as a diversified open-end management investment company. The fund’s investment objective is to provide investors with long-term capital growth consistent with the preservation of capital.The Dreyfus Corporation (the “Manager” or “Dreyfus”) serves as the fund’s investment adviser. Fayez Sarofim & Co. (“Sarofim”) serves as the fund’s sub-investment adviser. Dreyfus is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mellon Financial Corporation (“Mellon Financial”).

Dreyfus Service Corporation (the “Distributor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dreyfus, is the distributor of the fund’s shares.The fund is authorized to issue 100 million shares of $.001 par value Common Stock in each of the following classes of shares: Class A, Class B, Class C, Class R and Class T. Class A and Class T shares are subject to a sales charge imposed at the time of purchase. Class B shares are subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) imposed on Class B share redemptions made within six years of purchase and automatically convert to Class A shares after six years. Class C shares are subject to a CDSC on Class C shares redeemed within one year of purchase and Class R shares are sold at net asset value per share only to institutional investors. Other differences between the classes include the services offered to and the expenses borne by each class and certain voting rights. Income, expenses (other than expenses attributable to a specific class) and realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

Effective March 1, 2006, Class A shares of the fund may be purchased at net asset value (“NAV”) without payment of a sales charge:

• By qualified investors who (i) purchase Class A shares directly through the Distributor, and (ii) have, or whose spouse or minor children have, beneficially owned shares and continuously maintained an open account directly through the Distributor in a Dreyfus-managed fund, including the fund, or a Founders Asset Management LLC
  (“Founders”) managed fund since on or before February 28, 2006. Founders is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Distributor.

• With the cash proceeds from an investor’s exercise of employment- related stock options, whether invested in the fund directly or indi- rectly through an exchange from a Dreyfus-managed money mar- ket fund, provided that the proceeds are processed through an entity that has entered into an agreement with the Distributor specifically relating to processing stock options. Upon establishing the account in the fund or the Dreyfus-managed money market fund, the investor and the investor’s spouse and minor children become eligi- ble to purchase Class A shares of the fund at NAV, whether or not using the proceeds of the employment-related stock options.
• By members of qualified affinity groups who purchase Class A shares directly through the Distributor, provided that the qualified affinity group has entered into an affinity agreement with the Distributor.

Effective March 1, 2006, Class A and Class T shares of the fund may be purchased at NAV without payment of a sales charge:

• For Dreyfus-sponsored IRA “Rollover Accounts” with the distrib- ution proceeds from qualified and non-qualified retirement plans or a Dreyfus-sponsored 403(b)(7) plan, provided that, in the case of a qualified or non-qualified retirement plan, the rollover is processed through an entity that has entered into an agreement with the Distributor specifically relating to processing rollovers. Upon estab- lishing the Dreyfus-sponsored IRA rollover account in the fund, the shareholder becomes eligible to make subsequent purchases of Class A or Class T shares of the fund at NAV in such account.

The fund’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which may require the use of management estimates and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown.The fund does not anticipate recognizing any loss related to these arrangements.

20

(a) Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange or national securities market on which such securities are primarily traded. Securities listed on the National Market System for which market quotations are available, are valued at the official closing price or, if there is no official closing price that day, at the last sales price. Securities not listed on an exchange or the national securities market, or securities for which there were no transactions, are valued at the average of the most recent bid and asked prices, except for open short positions, where the asked price is used for valuation purposes. Bid price is used when no asked price is available. Investments in registered investment companies are valued at their NAV. When market quotations or official closing prices are not readily available, or are determined not to reflect accurately fair value, such as when the value of a security has been significantly affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market), but before the fund calculates its NAV, the fund may value these investments at fair value as determined in accordance with the procedures approved by the Board of Directors. Fair valuing of securities may be determined with the assistance of a pricing service using calculations based on indices of domestic securities and other appropriate indicators, such as prices of relevant ADR’s and futures contracts. For other securities that are fair valued by the Board of Directors, certain factors may be considered such as: fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, an evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold, and public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable issuers. Financial futures are valued at the last sales price. Investments denominated in foreign currencies are translated to U.S. dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange. Forward currency exchange contracts are valued at the forward rate.

(b) Foreign currency transactions: The fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign

The Fund 21

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments.

Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales and maturities of short-term securities, sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized on securities transactions and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities, resulting from changes in exchange rates. Such gains and losses are included with net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments.

(c) Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gain and loss from securities transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income, including, where applicable, accretion of discount and amortization of premium on investments, is recognized on the accrual basis.

The fund has an arrangement with the custodian bank whereby the fund receives earnings credits from the custodian when positive cash balances are maintained, which are used to offset custody fees. For financial reporting purposes, the fund includes net earnings credits, if any, as an expense offset in the Statement of Operations.

(d) Affiliated issuers: Investments in other investment companies advised by the Manager are defined as “affiliated” in the Act.

(e) Dividends to shareholders: Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends from investment income-net and dividends from net realized capital gain, if any, are normally declared and paid annually, but the fund may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue

22

Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).To the extent that net realized capital gain can be offset by capital loss carryovers, it is the policy of the fund not to distribute such gain. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

(f) Federal income taxes: It is the policy of the fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company, if such qualification is in the best interests of its shareholders, by complying with the applicable provisions of the Code, and to make distributions of taxable income sufficient to relieve it from substantially all federal income and excise taxes.

The fund has an unused capital loss carryover of $133,252,740 available for federal income tax purposes to be applied against future net securities profits, if any, realized subsequent to October 31, 2005. If not applied, $16,120,832 of the carryover expires in fiscal 2008, $70,665,418 expires in fiscal 2010, $28,550,186 expires in fiscal 2011 and $17,916,304 expires in fiscal 2012.

The tax character of distributions paid to shareholders during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2005 were as follows: ordinary income $9,152,055.The tax character of the current year distributions will be determined at the end of the current fiscal year.

NOTE 2—Bank Line of Credit:

The fund participates with other Dreyfus-managed funds in a $350 million redemption credit facility (the “Facility”) to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes, including the financing of redemptions. In connection therewith, the fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro rata portion of the Facility. Interest is charged to the fund based on prevailing market rates in effect at the time of borrowing.

The average daily amount of borrowings outstanding under the Facility during the period ended April 30, 2006, was approximately $386,500, with a related weighted average annualized interest rate of 4.96% .
