Why pursue a degree in global and intercultural leadership?
Our world is becoming increasingly globalized and interconnected. Because of this, it’s vital that you understand how to communicate with people across borders, regions, and cultures. By completing a degree in global and intercultural leadership, you can learn how to adapt to different environments and forge meaningful relationships around the globe.
Is global and intercultural engagement the same as international relations?
While these fields are related, there are some key differences between international relations and global and intercultural engagement. International relations usually focuses on political science and history, with the goal of understanding how governments and nation-states interact.
In contrast, global and intercultural engagement is an interdisciplinary field that looks at broad trends and analyzes many aspects of globalization, including political, economic, social, and ideological phenomena.
