From weapons of mass destruction to new infectious diseases, from climate change to borderless trade and investment, from terrorism to the Internet, modern issues require international cooperation and collective solutions. Undeniably, the world of the 21st century has become globalized; rapid expansion of markets and the explosion in human migration means that no country, or individual, exists as an island isolated from international trends and challenges. Interdependence of nations, and of people, is a fact of life.

Join the BA Program in International Studies at the University of Denver to learn directly about international events that directly affect your life. Whatever your interest, every student today needs to adapt to global issues, to grasp how the world works, and to have an international approach to their professional development.

Contact the BA Program for more information or visit Admissions at the University of Denver.
