Language Requirement (6 - 18 units)

Students must demonstrate intermediate-level proficiency in one foreign language by completion of one foreign language course at the 202 level or by a satisfactory score on an approved proficiency test. In addition, students must complete either 1) two 300-level courses conducted in that foreign language or 2) any two courses conducted in another foreign language. Students with advanced-level proficiency or proficiency in multiple languages should consult the Global Affairs major advisor about a possible waiver of this requirement. For non-native English speakers, a passing score on the TOEFL exam satisfies the intermediate-level proficiency requirement.
 
 

Concentration (12 units)

Choose one concentration consisting of 12 credits in specialized courses. The courses taken to satisfy the concentration requirement must be unique and cannot be applied to any other major, minor, concentration, or certificate program.  For any concentration, study abroad can reduce the credits required in the concentration. 

Students may also develop an individualized concentration in collaboration with the major advisor. Depending on the topic, courses in the “Topics Courses” category may be applicable to the concentrations. Topics courses may be repeated if course content is significantly different; approval by the major advisor is required. 500-level courses (marked with an *) also require advisor approval. For any concentration, approved study abroad may reduce the credits required, depending on the courses taken. International internships or internships with an international focus may reduce the credits required.
