A Major program in International Studies consists of at least 48 credits, and it has a two-tier structure. It is designed to provide the student with a broad base of understanding of the interrelationship of the world community, while at the same time providing the opportunity to specialize in an area of interest. While all students have to complete 18 credits of foundation courses, 12 credits of language courses and an international exchange or an international internship, students should normally choose one of two concentrations to complete the last 18 credits.
