Globalization impacts almost every field of study - particularly business, culture, and communication. With our interdisciplinary program, you’ll view the world from all of these vantage points and see the complex network of connections between nations and people. By the time you’re a senior, you’ll be able to work on a specific case study. The Kyoto Treaty is one case study in which students examine political, economic, and environmental ramifications.
You may also choose to double-major. Pair your global studies major with one in another academic discipline - business management, legal studies, or political science, for example.
Our faculty are leaders and innovators in their fields, bringing both deep professional experience and academic rigor to the classroom.
