Why study Social Sciences Interdisciplinary BA - International Studies Concentration at UB?

The SSC/International Studies major is designed for students who want to develop a global understanding of the world today. The major is rooted in the belief that significant language competence is fundamental to international competence and that interdisciplinary study provides a deeper understanding of the world’s events. The major combines introductory surveys of world history and international politics with a focused understanding of a particular geographic region: Europe, Latin America, Asia or Africa and the Middle East. Students may be studying the history, politics, culture or religion in their exploration of the chosen region.

Learning Outcomes

Upon completion of this concentration students will:

• Understand aspects of the people, forces and ideas that have shaped world development: nationalism, imperialism, power diplomacy, ideological conflict; comparative political systems
• Understand contemporary and historical international relations
• Have advanced, non-English language competency associated with completion of the third year of language study at UB

• Understand core concepts in international relations, international law, human rights, regional and spatial aspects of economic development, international trade from two disciplinary perspectives
• Understand multiple aspects of recent economic, political, commercial development of a world region: modern Europe, Latin America, Asia or Africa and the Middle East

Career Outlook

Students who graduate from the Social Sciences Interdisciplinary/International Studies major are prepared to work in not-for-profit agencies, law enforcement, government and the military. Students have reported obtaining employment with the Ethiopian Management Institute, SOS International Medical and Travel Security, International Rescue Committee, U.S Immigration and Naturalization Services and Academic Travel Abroad.
