Bachelor in Global Studies und Humangeographie

Global Studies and Human Geography prepares you to succeed in an increasingly globalized world. Our students study global change and the movement of people and resources in the world, focusing in particular on the spatial aspects of issues, communities, and cultures. They develop skills in critical thinking and complex analysis, written and verbal communications, and how to work effectively across cultures – the skills needed to work and thrive in the modern world. Nearly all of our majors and minors go abroad during their studies, often on study abroad trips led by our faculty. These opportunities are life-changing experiences; our students gain confidence, friendships, and experiences working internationally that allow them to thrive after graduation. Our students go on to leadership positions in NGOs and non-profits, government, and business.

Offering 300+ undergraduate and graduate degrees of study in diverse disciplines that prepare students for high-demand careers.

Many of our programs have earned national and, sometimes, international recognition for excellence. A highly-trained and dedicated group of faculty members not only prepare our students for their first job, but for careers that might not yet exist. Gaining a comprehensive education, instead of only specializing in one skill that could become less important a decade or two from now, that actually prepares students to handle diverse challenges of the job market.
