Our International Studies Program uses an interdisciplinary approach to examining global issues in order to foster engaged world citizens equipped with communication skills and intercultural perspectives. Our coursework helps students understand, diversify, connect and respect different cultures from around the world. We take a grassroots approach to global issues in order to foster the genuine empathy needed to work with a community. <br><br>Both the International Studies major and minor build upon the study of a language while our B.A. concentrations focus on geography, themes and issues. Please note that majors must demonstrate at least a second year college level proficiency in a foreign language. If you've already completed this requirement, consider building upon your language skills with an International Studies B.A.
