For those who signed up for the major in Spring 2018 or earlier, it requires 11 courses, including Intro to International Studies, Intro to Anthropology, either Modern Comparative Politics or International Politics, 4 Global Issues courses, 3 Area Studies courses, and a Global Issues Seminar (the capstone senior seminar).\u00a0 Beginning in Fall 2018, the requirements will be 12 courses because of the addition of one more Area Studies course (4 in total). For all students, you are free to take courses from more than one region to fulfill your Area Studies requirement. We will also accept one 200-level or higher language course as part of your Area Studies.

We recommend printing out the 4 Year Plan here and referring to it as you choose your courses. Double majors need to be especially thoughtful to guarantee that they will be able to complete their coursework on time. The sample Cross-Over Plans here provide examples of how the International Studies major can be combined with a second major. Because of the interdisciplinary nature of the major, double majors are common, but be sure to meet with your academic advisor early and often to plan your coursework.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ramapo.edu\/hgs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2014\/11\/4-Year-Plan.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">4 Year Plan<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ramapo.edu\/hgs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2014\/11\/History-Cross-Over-Plan.docx\">History Cross Over Plan<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ramapo.edu\/hgs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2014\/11\/Political-Science-Cross-Over-Plan-1.docx\">Political Science Cross Over Plan<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/groups? home=&amp;gid=4996934&amp;trk=my_groups-tile-grp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-152\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ramapo.edu\/hgs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2014\/10\/Linkedin-button-1024x312.jpg\" alt=\"Linkedin-button\" width=\"227\" height=\"69\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Visit our College Catalog to see the full requirements of the major and a list of available courses.
