The major in international affairs provides an interdisciplinary understanding of foreign cultures and societies, the dynamics of world politics and other nations’ world views and their consequent actions. It combines interdisciplinary, intercultural and multilingual education. The courses in this concentration stem from a broad variety of traditional liberal studies disciplines. The major also allows students to incorporate a minor in Africana, Asian, Latin American, Middle Eastern, Modern European or Russian studies, as well as the Studies Abroad programs. Because of limited course offerings, certain specializations may require language training from another university. International affairs is a 50-credit hour major, with a 32-credit common core and 18 credits of concentration study. This program mainly focuses on international relations concentration. Students may use three credits of INTA 301W for cross-area, area or international relations credit. INTA 301W will always count as a political science course. The precise manner in which INTA 301W will count toward the major will be determined in consultation between students wishing to take INTA 301W and the international affairs coordinator.
