The Global Studies Interdisciplinary Minor is designed to promote awareness, understanding, and appreciation for peoples and cultures around the world. It includes a choice of courses in various disciplines that emphasize international and global history, politics, languages and cultures, economics, and environmental issues. Three required interdisciplinary core courses integrate and expand on these themes. This program provides critical cultural context for students pursuing any major, and it is available to both resident and distance learners. Students enrolled in the International Studies major are not eligible for this minor.
Effective Fall 2021
Students must satisfactorily complete the total credits required for the minor. Minors and interdisciplinary minors require 12 or more upper-division (300- to 400-level) credits.
Additional coursework may be required due to prerequisites.
