Bachelor of Arts – Major in International Affairs
The bachelor's degree in international affairs gives students the intellectual tools to engage in today's global environment. The program begins with a foundation in political science, economics, history, and anthropology that prepares students to deal with issues that cross political and cultural boundaries.
From that base, students explore a wide variety of subjects beginning with international politics and policy, moving through trade and economics, development and human rights, culture, and regional studies. All of our students take a language through the third year of college instruction, and most of our students pursue this study through a semester or a year abroad.
