Overview
APU’s global studies major equips students to make a difference in the world. Students create an individual learning plan that moves through increasingly broad levels of involvement and experience: from university, to local community, to inner city Los Angeles, to global learning. This involves two semester-long internships, one in L.A. and one overseas, where students complete study and service projects with a special focus on the urban poor. APU global studies majors leave APU with the skills needed to make an impact on the global community.
