The international studies degree program at Webster puts the world at your fingertips. As an international studies major, you can personalize your degree with a regional and a thematic concentration, learn a foreign language, and explore another part of the globe through study abroad — all within a four-year undergraduate program. Understanding how cultures and customs are integrated into business, politics and society creates a great foundation for many professionals and students. The international relations curriculum enables students to analyze the legal, historical, socioeconomic and political factors that are key elements in this field of study. Webster's BA in International Relations students also examine the dynamics, structural characteristics, and humanitarian issues of the global community.

You’ll graduate with a global framework for exploring and understanding the world and its key issues, preparing you for a wide range of careers and a life as a responsible global citizen.
