Overview

The Minor in International Studies is an interdisciplinary program that is designed to offer students an opportunity to take a global perspective on their education. The program's features include a background in foreign language, a focus on issues related to internationalization or globalization of society, a focus on a geographic area of the world, and participation in a formal study abroad experience. Academic advisement is essential to this highly individualized program in order for students to construct programs that will fit their individual needs.
