Course Overview
As globalization is reshaping our world, scholars and policymakers are exploring much-needed new approaches to the transnational movements of ideas, people, commodities, and technologies as well as the cultural, political, and economic processes that underlie them. With an innovative and distinctive curriculum designed by world-renowned faculty, the M.A. in Global Thought offers students a new framework for understanding globalization and for developing new ways to think about critical global issues. Three core courses provide a foundational knowledge of global linkages, from economic processes to cultural and political ties. The interdisciplinary specialization in Global Governance, Global Political Economy, or Global Politics and Culture allows students to immerse themselves in a self-directed curriculum drawn from course offerings from across Columbia University. In the M.A. thesis seminars, students become familiar with a range of research methodologies and scholarship, and produce original research that draws together their interdisciplinary course work.
