Global Studies and Engagement

The Global Studies and Engagement focus is premised on the recognition that we inhabit an interconnected world where the pressing political, economic, social, and ecological issues of our times take place across national boundaries at a global scale. The focus equips students with an interdisciplinary understanding of global activities and processes across time and space, while developing the intellectual knowledge and practical skills necessary for cross-cultural engagement abroad. It provides strong preparation for postgraduate studies in a range of globally-oriented academic programs, or careers in international organizations, nonprofits and businesses, government, and education.
