Students complete 32 graduate credit hours to earn an MS in Global Studies. All MSGS students must complete three required courses early in their degree program. These courses are foundational for all three pathways and provide a context for elective coursework. Students are also required to take at least 4 credit hours of a professional development course-- either a practicum or project. The remaining credit hours provide students with a great deal of flexibility to customize the degree to suit their individual career goals within their chosen pathway. For more information on the core courses and electives, see the Courses page. Please contact the MSGS academic advisor if you're interested in exploring course options.
