The interdisciplinary major incorporates three academic components (international studies, foreign language and business) and an internship, with the courses of the liberal arts core curriculum:

The international studies component focuses on cultural issues that lead to a grasp of historical, sociological, political, and economic conditions in the global community.

The foreign language component is essential, because true access to a culture and a people is through their language. Twelve credits beyond the intermediate level are required.

The business component will prepare students in a professional career track that is enhanced by the broad global perspective

An internship component is required, either done abroad or with a foreign company in the U.S.
