You will need to be able to state clearly your objectives and goals.\n\nInternational studies  is complicated and includes many factors.\n\nHere is some advice: BE SURE THAT THIS IS WHAT YOU ARE INTERESTED IN DOING. Answer this question: Why do I want to study international studies????\n\nWhen you have answered that question  ask youself this question: Are the any other professions I may be interested in???\n\nIf you need help determining what professions would interest you take an interest test. An inerest test is a psycological that relates success in given professions with patterns of inerest. There are several interest tests, one that I know of is called the Kuder  Interest Survey.  \n\nGOOD LUCK!!

MASTER OF ARTS IN LAW AND DIPLOMACY (MALD) \n\n  \nMost students apply to the two-year Master of Arts in Law and Diplomacy (MALD) program. Broadly stated, the MALD is an interdisciplinary, professional master’s degree in international affairs. The MALD is designed to endow students with both the theoretical knowledge and practical skills needed to pursue careers in the international arena. \n\nMALD students graduate with a set of skills and knowledge that can be applied across disciplines, borders, and sectors. For example, just as students interested in refugees and forced migration would be served by understanding the economic factors that influence those issues, international bankers and consultants stand to gain from an awareness of the role of law and development in emerging markets. The Fletcher MALD allows students to make those connections. \n\nThe structure of the MALD program allows for a large degree of flexibility. Choosing from among the many courses offered at Fletcher, students select courses that match their own functional and/or regional interests, allowing them to design a program suited to their specific academic and professional goals. Students may also cross-register at the graduate and professional schools at Tufts and Harvard Universities. \n\nWithin the flexibility of the curriculum, however, there are both depth and breadth requirements that lend structure and focus to the program. MALD students must complete two Fields of Study, which are viewed as the basic “building blocks” of the Fletcher curriculum. The Fields are organized into 14 functional and 4 regional areas. To fulfill the breadth requirement, students are required to complete a certain number of courses from a select list within the three divisions of the curriculum: Diplomacy, History and Politics; Economics and International Business; and International Law and Organizations. \n\nThe Fletcher School offers several specialization certificates to MALD degree candidates. These certificates provide a "road map" to guide students in course selection, research, and outside-the-classroom activities necessary to develop the essential competence to work in these professional areas. \n\nIn addition to their studies at Fletcher, most MALD students spend the summer between their first and second years pursuing an internship in an area related to their studies.\n\nFor more information, please view the MALD degree requirements in the Academics section of the web site.\n \n\n\n \n      \n \n \n\n  \n \n    \n Fletcher Directory  |  Contact Us  |  Directions  |  Site Map   \n \n FletcherWeb@tufts.edu\n©2005 The Fletcher School, Tufts University\n\n160 Packard Avenue, Tufts University\nMedford, Massachusetts, 02155-7082 USA\nPhone: +1.617.627.3700

First, you should talk to an advisor at your university. This is advice from my advisor and personal research. If you're talking about being an International Trade Specialist or International Marketing Specialist go for Business Adm. (Marketing or anything else should work) and a MBA in International Business. American Intercontinental Univerisity offers International Business as in the undergraduate program. If you're thinking about government employment in Foreign Policies, try Business, or whatever major Pre-Law students are in. Also try www.usajobs.opm.gov to see what education is required for certain positions. I just changed my major to Bus. Adm.- Marketing to be an International Trade Specialist for a mojor corporation like Sony!!

I imagine many people have already mentioned the possibility of working for a governmental agency.  I would like to suggest to you the pursuit of employment and quite possibly a career in International Development with one of the many NGOs working in your region.  Your specialization in geography as it relates to civilization, humanity and population could be of great service to agencies that work in the areas of education, environment and relief on behalf of the less fortunate. \nSee the following NGO directories:\n\nhttp://edugreen.teri.res.in/explore/ngos.htm\nhttp://www.unchs.org/unchs/english/ngos/prof1.htm\n\nGood Luck in Your Endeavors!

Good grades and application to the State Deparment.  They will have a preference for certain degrees like you mentioned, but grades and background check will probably be more important than the major.\n\nThere are many jobs such as ambassador, consular officers, and numerous administrative positions at each of the embassy, consular offices, etc.

Actually, it is very easy to do. Apply to the universities you are interested in. Also, approach the local Rotary Club for some guidance. They all offer scholarships for international studies. One way to do it is to enroll in a foreign language program, which will send you to the country to learn the language. This makes it easier to pursue an education because you have shown a dedication to your education by learning their language, etc.

Most universities offer Study Abroad programs, some short and long term. I have been to Costa Rica and will be going to Dominican Republic this summer. (I have a minor in International Development) \nI wouldn't suggest degrees online, in my opinion it takes away from the whole class experience which I find to be one of the better learning tools. I don't know what it is you  are trying to pursue but get that together in your head and then research the job outlook, what kind of jobs you could/would land with the degree you choose and if your unsure of the degree but know the type of job you want to do, research the qualifications of the job(s) you like to help you get a better sense of the road you should be travelling. Good Luck!

I dont think Diplomacy is a degree, I think what you are looking for may be Political Science, or some sort of international relations degree, you can major in political science just about anywhere, international relations degrees are a little harder to find, its best just to find a schools website and see if they offer it.
