Why Choose the Bachelor of Arts in Global Studies?
As technology, commerce and travel bring the world closer together, the need to interact with
people from other cultures becomes more apparent both in the job market and in everyday life.
A varied career path and multiple job changes in one’s lifetime are becoming common aspects of
contemporary life. Thus, an interdisciplinary, intercultural and multi-lingual education is a key part
of successfully navigating the job market in an increasingly globalized world.
Global Studies at UW-Milwaukee provides applicable work and life experience through
international internships and study abroad, as well as coursework focusing on current world
issues. The program’s interdisciplinary and multi-faceted approach equips its graduates with enhanced
options and enables them to move more easily between job sectors with a developed sense of global
literacy.
Job opportunities abound for the interdisciplinary, culturally-savvy graduate. Not only will
graduates from the UWM Global Studies Degree Program be trained in their specific profession, but
they will also have the advantage of truly understanding the global dimension of their chosen field.
