| The surge of global issues makes
a major in International Relations increasingly attractive and relevant.
Redefinitions of international relationships in the aftermath of
the Cold War spur novel considerations in this field. At the same
time, new approaches from several scholarly disciplines and cultural
perspectives provide stimulating findings and methods to deal with
international topics.
The major provides a set of core competencies in international relations.
It also allows students to concentrate in one of two tracks, Social
Science or Comparative Cultures. In both tracks, students will acquire
sufficient breadth and depth in their study of international relations
to make well-grounded comparisons between two or more regions of
the world beyond the United States.
The International Relations major is offered jointly by the Departments
of History, Modern Languages, and Social and Decision Sciences,
and is currently available only as a second major, to be taken in
conjunction with a disciplinary major in H&SS or another college.
For more information regarding curriculum requirements for the major
minor, contact the faculty advisor or view the International
Relations website.
