Explore the systems that drive our contemporary world.

With an International Studies degree, students learn about the economic, political, cultural, even religious systems that drive our world and draw connections between social issues in the local community and in national and global settings. Our faculty educate on the appropriate social scientific methods to compile and interpret data about challenging issues, and how to present your findings in research projects, papers or conferences.

With this broad range of knowledge and skills, our graduates find professional success in government, international organizations, journalism, international consulting, international business, education, community development, and human rights work with non-governmental organizations (NGOs). The degree, also available as a three-year program, can also be your foundation for graduate studies in law; international relations; social sciences such as anthropology, history, political science, and sociology; public policy and public administration; and more.
