GLOBAL STUDIES MINORThe minor in global studies is available to all Stanford undergraduates from any major, and is designed to give students in-depth interdisciplinary study in one of six special-izations within a larger global context:• AfricanStudies• EuropeanStudies• IranianStudies• IslamicStudies• LatinAmericanStudies• SouthAsianStudies
All students will be required to complete 28 units, including a three-unit global studies gateway course, Global 101. The remaining 25 credits are unique to each specialization.
