Bachelor of Arts in International Studies

Simon Fraser University

We are scholars and teachers who work on real world issues, who seek to bridge the gap between what goes on in the university and what goes on in the places we study.The International Studies program in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences also offers a joint major with World Literature and a minor. You can start this program at either the Burnaby or Surrey campus.From climate change and armed conflict to poverty and global pandemics, the most significant problems in the world today are multifaceted: they have political, economic, and social dimensions. Understanding these problems, and developing effective responses, requires an interdisciplinary approach. Courses in international studies are drawn from various disciplines, including: international relations, economics, sociology, anthropology, and history.
