| INTERNATIONAL STUDIES MAJOR | ||||
|
The International Studies major at Shorter University is designed to prepare students for international careers and for the global challenges of life in the twenty-first century. As the globe shrinks and cultures collide, the demand for world citizens who can move between nations and across cultures will increase. These world citizens must possess a knowledge base that will enable them to understand the histories and cultures of various regions of the world. But more importantly, these citizens must have an appreciation for cultural differences and an ability to understand such differences in order to create a better world and to live satisfying and fulfilling lives.
This major allows for considerable flexibility so that students may pursue a more specific career course in a second major or minor area. This flexibility can enhance the marketability of a graduate. Unlike most other majors, the international studies major draws from across the college curriculum, offering students the opportunity to study in a variety of disciplines.
