Program Requirements
The mission of the Comparative International Studies as an interdisciplinary program is to prepare students to become citizens of the 21st century global world. The program offers a broad view and understanding of international and global forces in a wide range of human activities and across the disciplines included in the humanities and social sciences, and provides students with the opportunity to engage in a comparative study of two regions, learn a foreign language, experience international contexts through study abroad, and conduct research. The major prepares students for a rapidly changing, linguistically diverse, and multi-ethnic world in order to work in a variety of social, cultural, and economic environments.
For students entering major in/after Fall 2025
For students enrolled in the major prior to Fall 2025.
