BA- International Studies Major |

In order for students to fully appreciate and learn to deal with the magnitude of the cultural differences associated with international affairs, students must experience living in different cultures. With the recent development of UNF sponsored programs abroad, students will be able to meet this requirement locally, or as always, in ways external to UNF. The recommendation for this program requirement came from the external program reviewer in the spring of 2002 and approved by the program review committee during its deliberations in the 2002-2003 academic year.
Summary of Changes
Require all majors in the COAS International Studies Program to have an approved (meaning approval of the Program Director) international experience from one of the following options:
|
a. |
