Undergraduate Certificate in International Politics and Foreign Policy

University of Colorado - Denver

The International Politics and Foreign Policy certificate for undergraduates allows students to specialize in international politics and foreign policy, engaging topics and methods essential for graduate study in international relations and for successful careers in the field. More broadly, this certificate is useful to students in any discipline who expect to work or study abroad in the future or who plan to work in a field with significant international dimensions, potentially from business and economics to public health and engineering. One of the unique attributes of this certificate is that it dispenses with the traditional and well-worn ''capstone'', and instead emphasizes independent and experiential learning and coursework in order to best meet the needs of students seeking job-relevant skills and looking to prepare for graduate school.
