International Studies
The International Studies program is an interdisciplinary program in which students take courses offered by a number of humanities and social sciences departments in the Gonzaga University College of Arts and Sciences. The program offers students the opportunity to combine the study of a modern foreign language with other course work in order to learn about the society, politics, and history of other cultures. Students may major in International Studies in order to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree in International Studies, or may complete a minor. Within the program there are four areas of concentration for both the major and minor in Asian Studies, European Studies, Latin American Studies, and International Relations.
