BA in International Affairs and Cultural Anthropology in Boston United States | Northeastern University

This interdisciplinary program enables undergraduate students to cultivate an understanding of modern cultures within their worldwide, cross-border, and global frameworks from the early 1900s onward. The curriculum explores varied and multidisciplinary perspectives on international relations (including conflict, collaboration, and power structures), civic engagement, global activist networks, worldwide social initiatives, and government-citizen dynamics (covering governance systems, equity issues, rights, and participation). As part of the College of Social Sciences and Humanities, international affairs provides students with academic foundations, cultural competence, and practical abilities to excel and guide in our interconnected global community while fostering ethical global engagement. Our faculty, representing diverse international backgrounds, brings extensive research experience with particular focus areas in peace mediation, international legal systems, and the intersection of gender, ethnicity, and urban spaces in global affairs.
