Pomona
College International Relations Curriculum
The
International Studies Program focuses on the growing importance
of transnational actors, global markets, and international institutions
that challenge traditional notions of statehood and sovereignty.
This focus on the process of the globalization at the systemic level
is complemented by an additional focus on foreign cultures—their
languages, histories, and position in the global context. The program’s
emphasis on globalization and regional studies is supported by requirements
in modern language and study abroad, as well as by the activities
of the Oldenborg Center. These experiential aspects of the program
of the program introduce insight and empirical richness to the study
of international society.
The goal of the International
Relations Program is to develop in students the ability to think
analytically and independently about the structural features of
global society. Graduates are prepared for a variety of postgraduate
professional and academic degree programs. Career possibilities
include government service, law, business, non-governmental advocacy,
journalism, teaching, and research.
The major is governed
by a faculty-student committee representing relative departments
and students majoring in the program.
