INTL Minor (AY 2024-2025)
Alert: Upcoming Changes to Minor
Planned changes to the International Studies Minor will be effective in Fall 2025. For more information related to these changes, reference the Minor (2025) page.
A minor in International Studies supports Humboldt’s mission of encouraging global citizenship by applying a scholarly framework to the processes of globalization in an increasingly interconnected world. For some students, the major’s requirement to study abroad and proficiency in a second language presents a challenge so the minor is designed to remove that obstacle while encouraging students to engage with our interdisciplinary coursework, adding an international dimension as well as a professional component to any program of study.
The student learning outcomes for this minor include:
- the ability to analyze regional and global issues from economic, political, and cultural perspectives;
- the ability to gather information and use interdisciplinary analysis skills to critically evaluate regional and global issues;
- proficiency in formal written and oral communication; and
- the skills you need to build an international career.
