The University of Pennsylvania is renowned for its International Studies major which is situated in the College of Arts and Sciences and is only available to students in the Huntsman Program. The major is designed in such a way that students develop specialized knowledge in the area of the world in which their target language is spoken and graduate with a nuanced understanding of the political, economic, and cultural complexities of a changing world. It is an integrated curriculum that encompasses the examination of international studies through a social science lens, the study of international business perspectives, and deep engagement with a region of the world through advanced language acquisition and area studies courses that are usually taken during the semester abroad.
