In the 21st century, every issue is global. Any decision, whether made by a government or a business, has potentially wide-ranging international impacts. We are interconnected, tangled, and interdependent. The economy in southeast Wisconsin can be affected by events in Asia; the air we breathe by Canadian environmental regulations, and even our health by the appearance of a strange new micro-organism in the Tropics. The challenges seem larger than ever and the world smaller. Our global studies program helps students understand the complex relationships at work and become adept at finding solutions to challenging issues. If subjects such as politics, international relations, policy-making, sustainability, or macroeconomics interest you, you’ll appreciate Carroll University’s interdisciplinary program. We combine courses in political science, economics, philosophy, history, religious studies, environmental science, and public health. And you’ll select an emphasis that adds focus in economics, geopolitical issues or world regions.
