Bachelor of Arts [B.A] [International Studies] From University of Utah

Students in the International Studies program take courses from three core areas: Peoples, Challenges, and Systems. They must also take electives from a single focus area: Development & Sustainability, Foreign Relations & Security, Global Health, Culture & Identity, Trade & Commerce, European Studies, or Language/Culture Electives. Regardless of the chosen emphasis area, all International Studies students must also complete a learning abroad program or an international internship. Through the study of languages, geography, ethics, and human nature, students will form a basis for understanding global issues and their national and international impact. After graduating from the program, you will be prepared for a number of careers both domestically and internationally.
