Courses

The diversity of courses within the global studies discipline means that students are as likely to learn from a biology or literature professor as they are to learn from an economics, history or political science professor. Students make contact daily with faculty from across a large number of departments and fields. In doing so, they get the best of all academic worlds. They are exposed to varied classroom environments, from open discussions to hands-on field work, and they experience a range of different approaches to teaching since their professors have scholarly specializations that are as far flung as the African novel, Russian cinema, symbolism in world religions, human rights in Central America, Arab politics, world hunger, Asia security and international relations.

In addition to the courses offered under global studies, additional coursework is required in other departments. Check the major requirements and concentration requirements for more information.
