In
this cluster, students are encouraged to be active learners in and beyond the
classroom. This part of the GE program is flexible in several ways. You can
choose a semester-long study abroad program to satisfy the Global Study
portion, engage in experiential learning related to global issues or to
citizenship and community, or choose
from a menu of courses in each area. Students complete a total of 12 credits in
three areas.
You
can use courses in these areas to learn more about a topic, culture, language,
or other interest. Remember that many courses are approved in more than one GE
category, and so you can explore an area of interest in Global Study, for
example, and then decide to study it in further depth through an
Inter/Multidisciplinary Cluster or through a study abroad program. You may then
apply the completed course to a different GE category.
Review
your course options in each of the Global Citizen Cluster categories, visit the Center for Global Education, and consult the Career Development Center’s Internship
Guide for relevant internship opportunities.
Experiential learning projects must be pre-approved by the GE Committee.
