    In the 21st century, every issue is global. Any decision, whether made by a government or a business, has potentially wide-ranging international impacts. We are interconnected, tangled, and interdependent.

The challenges seem larger than ever and the world smaller. Our global studies program helps students understand the complex relationships at work and become adept at finding solutions to challenging issues.
