Global Studies

In the Global Studies program, students engage a critical, interdisciplinary approach to examine large-scale and interconnected issues facing our world. Drawing on the fields of geography, history, anthropology, economics, and politics, this program helps students develop understanding about global-local relations, the development of global ideas and actors, international challenges, global inequality, and global responsibility. The AA-T in Global Studies is designed for students planning to transfer into majors such as Global Studies, Global Politics, International Relations, International Studies, and Comparative Government. Majoring in Global Studies prepares students to work in the areas of international business, international law, government, sustainability, public health, development for social justice, education, and research, although Global Studies majors may apply their knowledge and skills in a vast range of fields.
