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. If subjects such as politics, international relations, policy-making, sustainability, or macroeconomics interest you, you’ll appreciate Carroll University’s interdisciplinary program.
