In our International and Global Studies major, students can examine a wide range of issues of global significance. Study Abroad is available in 70 different countries, covering every continent. At the graduate level, our two professional schools, in business and in social policy, both have an international orientation, as do our graduate programs in arts & sciences. Across the university, our faculty bring an international dimension to a wide range of subjects, from music and art to business and society, from literature and language to politics and economics, and of course in history and philosophy and other fields too.
