BA in Global Studies
Global studies students cultivate broad perspectives on the contemporary world. For example, you’ll learn to think of climate change not only in terms of carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere, but also in terms of politics, ecologies, social movements, and global inequalities.
When you examine migration, you’ll better understand immigration laws and the analyses of human mobility trends as well as the geopolitical upheavals and food systems failures that drive these trends.
And you’ll always keep in view the grassroots and community initiatives that address these problems on the ground since that is where people feel the impacts of problems most powerfully and where they work out creative solutions. In short, global studies is a major for students who are committed both to understanding the world and to making it a better place.
Courses
Global studies courses traverse geography and time. Some analyze the workings of global institutions and explore the operations of the global health, food, and financial systems. Others use works of art and philosophy from around the world to expose you to cultural forms like Indigenous art and prison literature. Still others explore long-term historical trajectories, such as the growth of global communications, media, and tourism industries.
Learning Experiences
You can also study abroad, intern, and engage deeply with on- and off-campus communities. In capstone projects, you’ll bring together what you’ve studied to define, explore, and create new visions of the world. You’ll learn both critical thinking and practice the empathy needed to construct global citizenship for the 21st century.
All learning experiences offer ample opportunities to develop communication and organizational skills that support success in future careers in many sectors including nonprofits, government, and industry, as well as graduate study in law, policy, social sciences, and the humanities.

If you are exploring or planning to transfer to CLA, learning more about your intended major is important.
Click on the ” Full Requirements” button above to see all of the major requirements, and any limits or restrictions on certain kinds of courses or credits. Every major has a requirement of a minimum number of upper level credits or courses that must be taken through their department. Some departments also have limits to the number of 1xxx or 2xxx level courses that can count towards major requirements.
Courses to Prepare for the Major
If you are considering a major in Global Studies, you are encouraged to take a 1xxx-level (lower division) global studies-related course early in your college career to explore your interest. A lower division course can provide a broad introduction to this major or explore a specific area of study such as human rights, revolutions and social movements, global political economy, environmental justice, migration and displacement, global health, race/ ethnicity in global perspectives, gender/ sexuality in global perspectives, or globalization, culture and the arts. Here are examples of 1xxx level courses offered at UMTC:
GLOS 1015W - Globalization: Issues and Challenges
GLOS 1105 - From Climate Crisis to Climate Justice
GLOS 1112 - Social Justice Across Borders
It is possible to take an introductory course after transferring. This is common for students transferring from schools where a major similar to Global Studies was not available.
A grade of C- or better is required in all courses approved to satisfy major requirements.
