The minor in global studies is available to all Stanford undergraduates from any major, and is designed to give students in-depth interdisciplinary study in one of six specializations within a larger global context:

1. African Studies
2. European Studies
3. Iranian Studies
4. Islamic Studies
5. Latin American Studies
6. South Asian Studies

All students will be required to complete 28 units, including a three-unit global studies gateway course, Global 101. The remaining 25 credits are unique to each specialization. Students participating in the Bing Overseas Studies Program are encouraged to enroll.
