Minor in Global Studies

About the Minor

Global Studies practices socially-responsible global citizenship through a unique combination of research-oriented and multilingual instruction, professional experience, and meaningful engagement with communities both here in Philadelphia and abroad.

Students experience Global Studies by:

• Examining the movement of peoples, goods, and cultures across countries and regions
• Studying global issues in concrete socio-economic, cultural, and geographical contexts
• Tackling structural inequalities from a variety of perspectives and disciplines
• Developing intercultural and language skills through unique pedagogical models

Admissions Requirements

Students are required to declare a major before declaring a minor. Students admitted directly into a specific major at the time of matriculation may declare a minor beginning in their second semester. All requirements for the minor must be completed either concurrently with or prior to the completion of the primary major requirements. This ensures that students fulfill the expectations of their primary field of study while completing any additional areas of academic specialization.
