Global Studies is an interdisciplinary field that examines the interconnected historical, political, economic, social and cultural influences that shape our increasingly interdependent world. It examines the institutions and processes affecting the world and the relationships among people, institutions and countries within their cultural contexts. Drawing on coursework in over a dozen fields, students will have the opportunity to investigate a variety of challenges facing the global community and develop the knowledge and skills to address them. Cross-cultural experiences and competency will be developed through opportunities for language study, internships and education abroad, as well as courses focused on the history, politics and societies of specific regions. Graduates in global studies will have the tools to be engaged global citizens. A Bachelor's degree in Global Studies can lead to careers in public and private organizations, including issue advocacy, diplomacy, international student and visitor exchange, journalism, legislative research, national security, and careers in international business and trade. The degree also prepares students to pursue graduate study in global studies, international relations, international security, law, public administration and other academic fields.
