 Introduction to the IR Curriculum
The IR curriculum provides the framework by which our students examine, and engage with, the field of
international studies. It is a framework that is very consciously
multidisciplinary -- designed to accommodate the ranging interests of our students
while providing a coherent and rigorous course of study. To ensure that it
remains strong and relevant, the IR Program has periodically reviewed and
updated its curriculum, with the last major curriculum revision coming well over
a decade ago.
This year, the IR Program officially launches a new curriculum. The product of faculty, student, and
staff consultation over three years, this curriculum offers new and revamped
specializations ("Thematic Concentrations") from which students may choose. It
also encourages greater integration in course choice around those
specializations.
NEW curriculum: The Class of 2011 and those thereafter will follow the new curriculum.
OLD curriculum: The Classes of 2008-2010 may choose to follow the new curriculum or continue with their course of study under the old curriculum.
