Description
The Global Studies minor offers a transnational perspective that has become critical for college students regardless of their major and career goals. It contains two options. The first option brings together the international and regional courses offered in English (EL), History and Philosophy (HI) and Politics, Economics and Law (PEL). History and Philosophy contributes courses in history and culture (a cross-cultural course from Sociology is also included), English contributes the literature courses, and Politics, Economics and Law the courses in politics, international relations, economics, political economy, and economic history. The second option incorporates foreign language courses from Modern Languages (ML). Teacher Education candidates for New York State secondary school certification will find this minor helpful.
