International Studies Degree
College of Arts & Sciences
The Related Fields Concentration in International
Studies is designed to offer students an opportunity
to gain global perspectives, to pursue greater understanding
of our interconnected world, and to prepare to apply
those insights in a variety of professions.
The subject matter is vast and the professional
and personal opportunities for utilizing it are rich
and varied. Therefore, the program is designed to
provide considerable latitude in matching the specific
content of individual programs to the needs and goals
of students. Thus, students will be required to work
closely with their academic advisor to plan the best
possible programs with the possibilities provided
by the Related Fields Concentration.
