International & Development Studies

HU professor teaching a developmental study class.

INTERNATIONAL & DEVELOPMENT STUDIES MAJOR

Historically, academia has been content to simply study questions of the Christian role in globalization, transnational conflicts, and social unrest. However, HU recognizes the growing need for graduates with an understanding of political, historical, and legal ramifications of these problems, as well as the economic, social, and spiritual consequences. As you study international and development studies, you will learn to grow into a responsible and ethical scholar and practitioner who can impact communities for Christ at the local and global level.
