About Bachelor of Global Studies

Overview The academic, scientific, and professional interest of this course lies in five key factors. Firstly, the fact that there are more and more deeply important challenges and threats of a universal scope that can only be managed and/or resolved effectively if they are considered simultaneously and synchronously by the relevant actors at the local, national, regional, and global levels. Secondly, the conviction that the dimension and depth of these challenges and threats have helped to crystallize a truly global society for the first time in human evolution. Thirdly, and in line with the previous factors, the need for transdisciplinary and interprofessional programmes focused specifically on describing, explaining, analysing, and understanding the complex phenomenon of globalization and global problems. Fourthly, the inadequacy or limitations of some of the existing study programmes that, while echoing the importance of globalization, adopt a limited interdisciplinary focus or concentrate on only one of the dimensions of this new global reality, thus limiting both its understanding and students’ training for extracting the maximum benefits from its potential and advantages and for facing the challenges and threats that come with it. Lastly, the conviction that the solution of humanity’s global problems and challenges involves studying, understanding, and reconciling, from a humanistic perspective, the mentalities, ideologies, and particular visions of the world with which they are perceived locally in the planet’s different regions.The Bachelor in Global Studies at Pompeu Fabra University is one of the two degrees existing in Europe and the only taught entirely in English in the first two courses.Career prospects:According to the experience of countries where similar courses are already implemented at the degree level, the graduates of Global Studies can find work in a broad range of professional areas:government administrations (local, regional, national, and international)diplomatic corpscultural and educational institutionsthe mediamultinational companiesimport and export firmsnon-governmental organizations working in cooperation and developmentpolitical partiesprivate international authoritiesinternational consultancy servicesresearch organizationsthink tanksenvironmental agencies.
