The interdisciplinary Global Studies Minor is designed to help undergraduates to develop a broader perspective on the world, to better understand other cultures including their history and inter-relations, and to lay the foundation for life-long learning about global issues. The minor will help prepare students for a host on international-oriented careers.
The world is increasingly interdependent, in terms of economics, politics, migration, media, climate, and culture. More than ever, educated citizens need to understand current affairs occurring in distant parts of the world, and to do so from the perspective of different regions and cultures.
