Global Studies
What does it mean to be a global citizen? How do local and global beliefs, events, and institutions travel across and structure the world we live in today?GST addresses these questions by exploring the economic, cultural, and political systems that unite and divide people across the world. Faculty who teach in GST work across a wide range of disciplinary and interdisciplinary fields, including history, anthropology, sociology, political economy, cultural and media studies, environmental science, and the scholarship of human rights. GST students learn to think critically about the history and practice of globalization through interpretation, empirical research, and project-based learning.Graduating GST students are particularly well-equipped to pursue professional careers or advanced study in public policy, business, international relations, community and non-governmental organizations, law, education, media and cultural studies, and area studies.
