THE MARQUETTE ADVANTAGE

ADD MUSCLE TO YOUR MAJOR. With a double major or minor in a foreign language, you can increase your marketability, whether it’s for employment or graduate school.

AN ALL-IN-ONE MAJOR. Marquette’s interdisciplinary major in international affairs combines the strengths of the university’s departments in Political Science and Economics, along with coursework in history, philosophy, theology and anthropology to provide you with the knowledge and skills required to cross borders and work with diverse cultures.

BROADEN YOUR EXPERTISE. You can choose among many subfield specializations: area studies (Asian, European, Latin American or Third World); cross-cultural studies (foreign language courses in civilization and culture); international communication; international economic relations; international political–military relations or peace studies.

STAY AHEAD OF THE CURVE. Learn not only from our distinguished faculty, but also from visiting international scholars who will keep you on top of international affairs as they share their own research, experiences and insights with you in the classroom.

GET THE WORLD VIEW. Spend a semester or a summer studying in another country, or, if you choose to stay stateside, head to New York for a two-week program at the United Nations headquarters, where you can observe international relations in action and meet with diplomats.
