International Studies

The International Studies major is an interdisciplinary major based in the Political Science Department. Majors can choose between the following areas of emphasis:

  • International Political Economy emphasis
  • European emphasis
  • Latin America emphasis
  • Language and Culture emphasis
In addition to taking the required courses for his or her chosen emphasis, a student majoring in International Studies must demonstrate a high level of foreign language competency. The major also requires a stay abroad, which can be a semester, a J-term excursion, or a summer program; it also requires an internship with an international component. The internship can be combined with the experience-abroad requirement, or fulfilled separately.

For more information on the International Studies major, see the College Catalog, under Political Science.
