Undergraduate Courses

Global Studies (GLS) is an interdisciplinary department with faculty trained in political science, geography, communication, and culture. As such, we offer an array of regionally and globally focused courses from a variety of perspectives. Our courses examine contemporary global issues and international relations with emphasis on politics, commerce, and culture. 

GLS courses serve students in the Global Studies Major and Minor as well as the Liberal Studies Major. US, Comparative, and State and Local Government and Politics courses fulfill Bentley's General Education Requirement. These and other GLS courses can also be used to satisfy degree requirements in other programs as indicated in the descriptions below.
