Course Information: 4 graduate hours. No professional credit. Prerequisite: Graduate Standing.

Special Instructions:

Global Studies is an emerging and rapidly changing field. It is well on the way to becoming a new field of study among the major research universities in the United States and abroad. It is also more than a discipline. Today it is increasingly expected that holders of graduate degrees-whether professional degrees in Medicine, Law or Business, Masters or Ph.D.-also acquire an understanding of key global concepts and debates along with training in their primary disciplines. This course provides that much-needed analytical and methodological understanding.
