International Studies Minor
As technology and the forces of globalization make everyone in the world more closely connected, it is important that students know more about the world in which they will have to live and work. At ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½, we believe this means not only knowing about the history, politics and cultures of other countries, but communicating with other people in their own languages and developing experience abroad. The international studies minor helps students achieve the knowledge and skills to find their way in a growing world.
Why Choose an International Studies Minor at ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½?
What can you do with an international studies minor? Our program encourages students to view the world from different perspectives and consider social, political, economic, historical and cultural processes, power relations and linkages that connect individuals, communities, states and regions. We educate students in understanding the world outside the United States so that they can better serve as informed citizens in a democratic society and also as professionals in careers spanning national boundaries.
For a more in-depth study, ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ also offers an international studies major.
The International Studies Program is for students who want to ask the big questions – about how the world works and how to change it for the better.
