The Department of International Relations at Boston
University offers a Bachelor of Arts degree in International Relations
as well as Bachelor of Arts degrees in East Asian Studies, Latin American Studies, and East European Studies, through the College of Arts and Sciences. International Relations
is currently the most popular undergraduate major at Boston University. The Department
attracts many students who complete double majors or minors in International
Relations and related majors such as political
science, economics,
or foreign languages.
The multidisciplinary requirements allow students to integrate
these other majors and minors into their IR curriculums without
requiring extra semesters of study.
Participating departments within the College of Arts and Sciences include the Departments of Anthropology, Economics, Geography, History, Modern Foreign Languages, Political Science, Religion, and Sociology. Additionally, the Center for Energy and Environmental Studies, the University Professors Program, the College of Communication, and the School of Management participate in our program. This comprehensive involvement by various disciplines engages the extensive resources of Boston University, permits flexibility, and offers a breadth of courses unusual in an international relations program.
