Introduction.
The interdisciplinary majors in the area
of public and international affairs embrace the arts, the humanities, the
social sciences and more. Each major is dedicated to the proposition
that civic life is enhanced by studies that cross traditional subject boundaries
and international borders.
Responding to the increasing integration
of global transport, communications, politics, economics and culture, the
European
Studies major is designed to show the student the network of intellectual
connections among disciplines relevant to European Studies. In this
major the courses that are required generally explore connections among
nations rather than within one nation, and tend to exclude studies of domestic
issues in the United States.
A major in International Studies
is designed to provide the student with a basic understanding of the historical
background of the contemporary international system, the economic and political
forces which affect the relations of nations and other international factors.
The major requires some courses in non-western history and selections from
the global cluster.
The Public Affairs Tri-subject Major
is designed to provide a foundation for responsible participation in American
and global public affairs and to ilustrate the network of intellectual
connections among disciplines one of which must be Political Science.
Note: for a double major
there must be 21 non-repetitive hours, and for an additional minor 15 non-repetitive
hours. Courses may, however, also count for college distribution.
