About European Studies
Europe is changing and recharging in the face of global problems and opportunities. Spend a semester in Spain (or another European country) as a European Studies major, an interdisciplinary program designed to give you a comprehensive view of Europe, past and present, from a variety of perspectives. Rooted in the liberal arts, European Studies offers excellent preparation for advanced study in graduate or professional school programs that position you to deal with international commerce, law, or education.
