Minor - INTERNATIONAL STUDIES

The aim of the minor is to encourage students to develop a more global perspective on the problems
and issues facing themselves, the country, and the world.  This aim can be accomplished through the 
examination of the history, culture, arts, literatures, languages, politics, philosophies, religions, geography,
anthropology, economics, and/or social patterns of particular foreign countries or regions. While this aim 
can be furthered through course work here at Lock Haven, it can be better and more fully achieved through such course work taken in other countries as part of an approved LHU semester-long student exchange program. 
LHU encourages and expects every student to consider study abroad.  The sophomore year is the best time for this experience.
