Mission and Goals. The Global Studies Program is designed to provide students with the critical analytical skills needed to assess the world around them and their place within it. A rigorous, multi-track curriculum brings together theory and application, addressing questions and debates essential to understanding contemporary social dynamics: from radical changes in the political economy of globalization to ongoing fluctuations in perceptions and definitions of cultural identities, from the vibrant exchange among literary, artistic, and intellectual figures to the proliferation of cross-national institutions and networks, from issues of sustainability around changes in ecology and geography to conceptual shifts in ideas and discourses. The Program creates a forum for exploring the varied processes and products of our increasingly interconnected world through interdisciplinary study. Program coursework will analyze the historical trajectory of globalization and its complex origins, examining evidence and tracing debates regarding the timeline of the "global age." By taking a deeply historical perspective, and discerning the mutual influence of the "global" and the "local," we can more fully capture the transformations at work in this emergent field. Through thematically-focused scholarship, students and faculty in the Global Studies Program come to understand the forces that animate global society. The expansive approach of the program places it in a rare position to carve out original and experimental ways of comprehending our realities, including new lines of inquiry and theoretical frameworks, new territories of speculation and methodologies. In this way, Global Studies ventures to occupy multiple scales of experience, to capture the dynamic interaction among micro-, meso-, and macro-level phenomena, allowing for an intimate engagement with the most dominant questions facing the present and future. The unique location of Northeastern Illinois University allows its students to pursue these innovative trajectories from the vantage of a global city, to address such questions in the classroom and on the ground, in Chicago and abroad. The far-reaching diversity of the university mirrors Chicago's own elaborate configuration of cultures and viewpoints, thereby enabling students to bridge the distance between theory and practice, between "here" and "there," through incisive application of what they have learned. Students majoring in Global Studies at Northeastern will gain knowle...
