All students must complete the University's Liberal Education requirements.

Collegiate Requirements:

All CLA BA degrees require 18 upper-division (3xxx-level or higher) credits outside the major designator. These credits must be taken in designators different from the major designator and cannot include courses that are cross-listed with the major designator. The major designator for the Global Studies BA is GLOS.
Students are required to complete 4 semester(s) of any second language, with a grade of C-, or better, or S, or demonstrate proficiency in the language(s) as defined by the department or college.
All incoming CLA first-year (freshmen) must complete the First-Year Experience course sequence.
All incoming CLA first-year (freshmen) students earning a BA, BS, or BIS degree must complete CLA 3002 or another approved career or internship course (CLA 3101, CLA 3201, CLA 3301, CLA 3896, CLA 3996, or GLOS 3896).
All students must complete a capstone in at least one CLA major. The requirements for double majors completing the capstone in a different CLA major will be clearly stated. Students must also complete all major requirements in both majors to allow the additional capstone to be waived. Students completing an additional degree must complete the Capstone in each degree area.

At least 14 upper-division credits in the major must be taken at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities campus.

Students may earn a BA or a minor in Global Studies, but not both.

Students must formally enroll in the major at the advising office, 206 Social Sciences Building. Students must meet with an advisor to develop a program that meets major guidelines.
