Learning Outcomes

Students will be able to:

recognize that the complexity of current world conditions requires a multidisciplinary approach to problem solving, analyze and synthesize information about key topics related to their chosen major track, demonstrate intellectual open-mindedness when addressing global issues, and apply cross-cultural skills when engaging respectfully with people from other countries and diverse communities in the United States.

Overview

International studies students learn that the complexity of current world conditions requires a multidisciplinary approach to problem solving. Engaged faculty members help students tailor the major to their unique interests and goals in order to develop global perspectives and skills required for life and careers in the 21st century. Students choose a track, a world language, and a capstone program option. The tracks combine courses from the social sciences, humanities, and arts that focus on a world region or an important global issue. As a second major, international studies can add cross-cultural skills and perspectives to degrees in business, health sciences, journalism, and the arts.

International studies students also are encouraged to develop real-world intercultural skills by studying abroad, engaging locally with international communities, completing internships, participating in service learning, and conducting research. Through academic and cocurricular experiences, students become prepared to positively contribute to the world.

The Bachelor of Arts with a major in international studies requires a minimum of 120 s.h., including at least 42 s.h. of work for the major. Students must maintain a g.p.a. of at least 2.00 in all courses for the major and in all UI courses for the major.

The flexible structure of the international studies major allows students to tailor the degree to fit a wide range of academic interests and career goals. International studies also is an ideal complement to a variety of academic degree programs and many students combine the international studies major with another major such as world languages, business, journalism, health sciences, or the arts.

International studies alumni find employment in a range of career sectors such as education, nonprofit/nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), business, government, and translation/ interpreting.

Specific examples of organizations where recent graduates have found post-graduation opportunities include Doctors without Borders (New York City, New York), the International Visitor Leadership Program/U.S. Department of State (Washington, D.C.), Coyote Logistics (Chicago, Illinois), Peace Corps (Cambodia and Uganda), American Councils for International Education (Washington, D.C.), CET Study Abroad Programs (Greece), RefugeeRISE AmeriCorps (Des Moines and Iowa City, Iowa), Japan Exchange and Teaching Program (Japan), The Bold Italic (San Francisco, California), and Texas Rio Grande Legal Aid (Austin, Texas).
