Overview

Global Studies critically looks at global issues from the lens of many disciplines. This Bachelor of Arts relies on intellectual and experiential frameworks to instill in students the ability to communicate, problem-solve and empathize.

The Global Studies - Global Societies - Human Rights, Migrations, and Social Movements Emphasis at The University of Arizona shines a light on global movements and struggles. Students learn about human rights as a lived reality, as an ethics of state power and as a tool for social activism and political emancipation.

A range of theoretical approaches encourages exploration of race, class, gender, sexuality, language and power as expressed in collective mobilizations across borders. Coursework spans from anthropology and sociology to history and geography.
