Global Studies encourages students to grapple with the
fundamental dynamics of our time through an interdisciplinary framework. We are
interested in the social processes that cut across regions, the global flows
that have local impacts and the local initiatives that have global resonances.
The concentration has three tracks, (1) one which deals with the realm of
consciousness (gender, race and class), (2) another which deals with the
contradictions of the material world (sustainable development), and (3) a third
which allows students to compare two regions of the world (comparative
regions).
