At Augsburg, International Relations majors take a core program of required courses and choose from a variety of other courses to adapt the major to their special interests.
Some students focus on a discipline such as history, political science or economics.
For many students, International Relations is a part of a double major, often combined with East Asian, Russian or Scandinavian area studies, a history or political science major, or a foreign language. Any number of combinations exist to prepare students for positions in government, international agencies or international corporations. The International Relations major also provides solid preparation for those who enter graduate school.
