International Education

The program is tailored individually and builds on a regular catalog major in fields such as one of the foreign languages, economics, history, political science, or sociology. |

Major
- International Education (complementary major) (26 hours)
|
Additional courses focused on specific goals in international education are added to this base from INED and other departments. Thus, students with interests in such diverse areas as international business, teaching, ministry and missions, and the travel industry can formulate a program of study designed to serve their specific needs and interests. The individualized structure of the major will prepare students for entry into careers or graduate schools. Students must obtain written statements of their programs before embarking on this course of study. The construction of individual requirements in international education must involve the active collaboration of the director of international education, the student, and a faculty adviser in the basic field of study. Students will draw upon the resources of several departments and travel and internship possibilities available through the Tri-S program. Students are strongly encouraged to incorporate a study abroad or international internship in the major. The international education complementary major is offered only in conjunction with a primary catalog major. No more than 4 hours of liberal arts courses may count toward the major and no more that 15 hours may be common to both the student’s primary major and the international education major. |
