Introducing the international studies minor

Economic, social, and public health problems have a tendency not to respect national boundaries. And so to study these problems requires a broader focus. Enter the new international studies minor for Santa Clara undergrads in the College of Arts and Sciences and the Leavey School of Business.

Students can choose between an area studies emphasis with a focus on Africa, Europe, or Latin America or a thematic emphasis with a focus on a topic, such as poverty and development, international human rights, or peace studies.
