Dear Student,

I'm sure you have heard by now that we are living in a truly global world. Businesses and organizations, both private and public, look to recruit graduates whose college education has placed a premium on providing an internationalized curriculum.

The International Affairs Program at Florida State University provides just the right curriculum to allow its graduates to compete effectively for jobs on a national and international scale. Our curriculum is interdisciplinary, allowing students to build a degree program from courses offered through eleven cooperating programs on campus. The faculty members who teach these courses are among the very best in the University.

The International Affairs Program truly builds an internationalized curriculum by encouraging its students to fulfill at least one semester of work in the major at one of FSU's overseas Study Centers. A program for IA majors, based in London, has been established to provide students with an opportunity to study in one of the world's most important political, financial and cultural capitals.

International Affairs also offers students an extensive internship program that fulfills graduation credit. Aside from working with agencies and businesses in Florida's capital that work in the international arena, International Affairs student can also take advantage of internships in Washington D.C. through the Washington Center. Most significantly, IA students can apply for one of several prestigious internships in London where we place our students in Parliament, the American Embassy, Amnesty International, NBC, the Associated Press, the British-American Chamber of Commerce, and other significant organizations.

The International Affairs program at FSU offers an exciting and flexible program that provides students the basis for competing effectively in the globalized world of the 21st Century. Feel free to write or call us for more information.

Sincerely,
