Mission Statement

The International Studies major will provide students with a richer, deeper and more sophisticated knowledge of our interdependent world, so that our students are better prepared to take leadership roles in it.

 Objectives

1. Identify current global issues and evaluate political implications.

2. Articulate the current global, regional, and local trends in political systems and conditions.  

3. Recognize similarities and differences in the human condition across national boundaries and cultural contexts.

4. Develop at least intermediate proficiency in a foreign language so students can successfully establish an authentic dialogue with  international texts and subjects, thereby enabling them to achieve the goals and objectives of the International Studies Major.

5. Use Political Science research analysis to draw conclusions about a specific topic in International Studies.
