How will I focus my studies?
This flexible major provides a core background in international affairs, and
then enables students to focus on a regional area of emphasis (i.e. Africa/Middle
East, the Americas, East Asia and Europe) or a global affairs area of emphasis
(i.e. international business, international environment and development, diplomacy
and international security or intelligence and national security). This major can
be closely integrated with study abroad programs, internships and service learning,
international conferences and Model United Nations.
Minor
The minor in international studies requires 15 hours of coursework outside of the
student’s major field. Along with a core analytic course in international affairs
outside the discipline of the student’s major, the minor requires 12 additional
hours focused on the four geographical regions offered in the major.
