The College of Global Studies focuses on the ways in which the modern world has become a single global community and the implications of this fundamental shift. Students will explore contemporary global culture, issues, debates and solutions. Students in the College of Global Studies will gain a greater level of understanding from political, scientific, economic, business, environmental, social, and technological perspectives. Global Studies is designed to examine the modern world system and the greater connection and interdependence among people. The College of Global Studies is home to the International Studies Living Learning Center.

At the College of Global Studies we will concentrate on preparing you to be a citizen of the world, someone who is alert to and informed about the way that the fates of everyone around the world are intertwined: how we can and do enrich each others lives, how the successes of one community or nation help people in other communities and nations, and how the problems in one place diminish the prosperity of people everywhere.
