When you enroll at Susquehanna, you’ll be paired with an advisor and application tool to guide you in your course planning and scheduling. The following is an excerpt from the complete course catalog. Enrolled students follow the requirements of the course catalog for the academic year in which they declare each major and/or minor and consult with their advisor(s).
Minor in International Relations
International relations is the study of interactions among countries. It explores countries’ foreign policy, interstate trade, cooperation and war. An international relations minor is a strong complement to many fields, particularly for students who wish to pursue international study or business. Students may not attain an international relations minor if they have a political science major or minor. The minor requires 24 semester hours with grades of C- or better and at least a 2.00 GPA in the minor.
Required courses include:
- POLI-121 Comparative Government and Politics
- POLI-131 International Relations
- 12 semester hours from the following courses:
- POLI-321 European Union
