We're dedicated to encouraging an interdisciplinary study of world affairs and a cross-cultural
understanding.
Our institute is home to six undergraduate minors that explore world cultures, histories,
languages and politics in depth. We also offer scholarships and funding for both graduate and undergraduate research and travel.
Our work isn't just for the college community. We host conferences and events that
are open to the public, including our annual Taiwan Conference that we've hosted since
1996.
You can see some examples of our research in our publications and our two academic journals "Governance" and "French Historical Studies." We also receive outside funding and
even won a $5,000,000 grant for the Rule of Law Collaborate in 2014.
Our faculty associates are an interdisciplinary group from around the University of
South Carolina campus. We conduct vigorous research and teach courses for our undergraduate
minors, which won us the Nikolai Khaladjan Award for Innovation in International Education in 2007.
