Global Studies is rooted in the idea that a better, more just world is possible. Our courses focus on connecting interdisciplinary, active learning in the classroom with real-world, global engagement. Global Studies is about unleashing the potential of students to make a positive difference—on campus and beyond.

Global Studies is an award-winning department that offers a major and minor, with innovative courses taught by dedicated full-time faculty, trained in areas across the humanities and social sciences. The study of globalization takes on new meaning given the interconnectedness of the world, along with the growing number of social, political, economic, and cultural challenges.

As a result, we need for new ways of thinking, acting, and educating. Global Studies aims to prepare critically engaged and responsible change makers by offering global perspectives on the most pressing issues facing our world. Students are given theoretical and applied frameworks to understand the pillars of a globalized planet, and the tools for reciprocal, collaborative action in an interdependent world.
