This is an on-campus program.
In today's world the traditional borders of commerce, communication, and politics have been replaced with a dynamic global web of cross-cultural and cross-sector relationships. Whether in the area of private business, nonprofit humanitarian aid, or cutting-edge information and communication technology, this global arena demands that organizations and individuals act and think in new ways. The Master of Science in Global Studies and International Affairs provides professionals with the knowledge to lead and thrive in this global environment. The Master of Science in Global Studies and International Affairs is a result of a collaboration with the International Affairs Program and the Middle East Center for Peace, Culture and Development. The curriculum for this program focuses on the reality of living in a global society. This focus has shaped a curriculum that brings together students and practitioners with experience in both the public and the private sector, thereby providing students with the knowledge and skills they need to fully participate in this global arena. The program is distinguished by its emphasis on both practice-oriented learning and the development of competency in global-studies. Pedagogically, the curriculum comprises three core global studies courses; one global training seminar; and five or six elective courses (for a total of 20 credits of electives).
