International Studies Introduction
Students will develop a core knowledge of geography, world affairs, economics, cultural paradigms, and politics. They will then specialize with a 21 credit module to prepare for careers in international business, economics, policy-making, or geographic information systems (GIS). Students can further customize their degree through a selection of area studies culture classes that focus on dynamic regions of the world. Finally, students will complete an internship or a study abroad program where they apply the skills and knowledge they learned throughout the program. A senior research capstone class helps students create a project that will launch them into their career.
