The concept of global interconnectedness has emerged as a defining characteristic of our contemporary era. The difficulties experienced by developing nations in the Global South directly influence Canadian society. International Development Studies (IDS) is a multidisciplinary initiative designed to tackle the social, political, and economic challenges confronting emerging nations. This program incorporates chosen courses from UNB's Faculty of Arts, offering students a comprehensive perspective on critical modern concerns such as North-South relations, worldwide integration, economic deprivation, indigenous issues, cultural conflicts, and environmentally sustainable growth.
Students can pursue IDS as a primary focus, combined major, or honors specialization within a four-year Bachelor of Arts degree. The Arts program spans four years and encompasses diverse disciplines focused on humanity's study and the development of global communities, ideologies, and systems. During the initial two years, learners choose courses across humanities, languages, social sciences, as well as scientific and business fields, establishing a wide knowledge base for specialized upper-level studies.
Practical experience
The IDS curriculum enables participants to engage in internship opportunities both domestically and abroad.
