The BA in International Studies affords an opportunity for students to find their truest vocations, to discover their passions, and to become active and engaged citizens in a complex global world that defies simple explanations or solutions. The sequencing of the BA in International Studies is designed to give students a firm grounding in the breadth of the international studies field, as well as solid research skills, before they further develop their own research and substantive interests. This program offers eight thematic areas: Environmental Sustainability and Global Health, Foreign Policy and National Security, Global and Comparative Governance, Global Inequality and Development, Identity, Race, Gender, and Culture, Justice, Ethics, and Human Rights, Peace, Global Security, and Conflict Resolution and The Global Economy. In the Global Economy Thematic Area, students will study the political economy of this evolving international landscape and analyze economic growth, winners and losers, and the legitimacy of these changes. They explore how globalization changes the world and alters the political, economic, and social prospects of nations and their citizens. They also consider how international organizations struggle to manage this complex process and create governance structures to adapt to these changes, and how national governments attempt to balance their sovereign mandate to govern and protect their people with the frequently disrupting financial and trade-related impacts of global competition.
