4 courses with the subject INST, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.

INST 260History of International Relations

Foreign language (2 courses) Two courses beyond the intermediate level in the chosen foreign language (usually 5- 6 semesters for students starting a language as an absolute beginner). This requirement is waived for international students for whom English is not a native language. The objective of this requirement is for students to develop practical skills of inter- cultural communication. Therefore, students should choose a modern, spoken language. Latin and Ancient Greek and other ancient languages cannot be used to fulfill the foreign language requirement for the International Studies curriculum, nor can American Sign Language. Concentration (4 courses) Four elective courses in one of the four following concentration areas: • A Geographical Area or a Specific Country • Sustainability and the Global Environment • World Economy and Development • Global Security Regardless of concentration, courses must be drawn from at least two different departments and should be selected in consultation with the International Studies faculty advisor. Senior capstone courses (2 courses)
