About the Program

The Intercultural Studies Program enables students to learn about cultural and cross-cultural skills and relationships in the  United States and beyond. The program uses an interdisciplinary and developmental model to examine cultures and  co-cultures, power, prestige, privilege, group interrelationships, and cross-cultural communications and interactions. It is  designed to help students participate more meaningfully in their social, civic, and increasingly global world of work roles.

A major or minor in Intercultural Studies offers a great complement to a course of study in the health professions, human services, education, business, and traditional social science fields.
