Certificate in International Studies

The Certificate in International Studies allows students from all disciplines to add international breadth to their program. In an increasingly interdependent world, it is vital to develop expertise in this area. Evidence of focused international study is looked upon as a key distinction by employers in business, government, education, the arts, human services, and other areas, as well as by graduate and professional schools.

The certificate consists of a minimum of 15 credit hours of courses designated as having an international focus, and two semesters of a world language.

Although not required, a study abroad experience is recommended. All study abroad counts toward the certificate, and if it involves another language, it also counts toward the language requirement.

The 21 hours must be distributed as follows:

• 6 credit hours in a world language (or equivalent)
• 15 credit hours must include no more than one 100–level and at least one 400–level course

The 21 credit hours must include courses from three different disciplines. The courses can also satisfy other liberal arts and sciences requirements.

Courses may be chosen from three of the following disciplines. Additional courses may be approved by the faculty committee based on content relevant to international studies.
