Overview

If you want to address the world’s most pressing problems, you’ll need to study more than political science or international relations. You’ll need to explore the economic, historical, social, and cultural dimensions of these issues as well. Brandeis University's International and Global Studies (IGS) Program is founded on the conviction that only a truly interdisciplinary approach will give you the insights you need to understand — and perhaps to solve — the challenges of our globalized world.
