Bachelor of Arts in International Studies

Program Type: Bachelors Degree

Overview

The international studies program seeks to assist students in preparing for living and serving in the modern world.  The focus of the international studies curriculum is upon the twentieth-century world and the humane disciplines more than the technical and scientific ones.

Majors from all disciplines who wish to develop a broad understanding of God's people throughout the world and are interested in careers in foreign service, humanitarian agencies, international law, overseas teaching, journalism and other mass media, translation, missions, or international business would clearly benefit from a major or minor in international studies.

The department of history administers the interdisciplinary international studies program. Students interested in earning a bachelor of arts degree major or minor in this program should consult the program director.

Curriculum

The major requires completion of 40-42 hours in foundational courses, related field requirements, and a concentration area.  Other requirements include a January interterm- or semester-international study experience, and a senior paper.  In addition, majors must also complete two years of one foreign language.
