The Global Studies curriculum stresses a critical analysis of complex and controversial global issues, social research, oral and written communication, intercultural relations, community service and social action.
You'll start by learning a core theory in globalization, culture, history, political economy and global politics. Then, you'll specialize in a thematic area such as: Global Culture and Ideology, Global Politics, Global Political Economy, International Development, and Peace, Conflict and Humanitarian Action or construct a faculty-approved focus relevant to your future. You'll also develop global competency through service learning and international experience. Finally, you'll synthesize and present your learning through a Capstone project.
