International (Global) Studies
De Anza now offers a certificate of achievement and two associate degrees in Global Studies.
Global Studies is an interdisciplinary program designed to equip students with knowledge and understanding of the world's social, political, economic, and natural systems and their increasing interdependence.
The program provides students with a broad comprehension of critical issues that affect their lives and community, the processes of globalization and their impacts on societies, cultures, and environments around the world, along with an appreciation of the diversity of human cultures and languages.
Through the program, students will become well-versed in global issues, geography, world history; gain cultural competence and proficiency in a world language; while acquiring a strong background for working in a global economy, living in a multicultural society and making educated decisions as global citizens.
