New Curriculum Approved Course Listing
Below is a list of all courses Tufts has approved for the new curriculum, to this date. They are split into three sections:

  1. Core Requirements
    The Core Requirements constitute the foundation of knowledge that is needed by all majors in International Relations, regardless of thematic or disciplinary concentration. They are comprised of broad introductory courses that cover the major themes and debates within each discipline on the study of international affairs.
     
  2. Thematic Concentrations
    Thematic Concentrations are designed to provide students with substantial, in-depth, and focused study of an aspect of international affairs.
     
  3. Language Requirement
    Students of international relations must have oral and written proficiency in at least one other language besides their native tongue. Thorough language study is an essential tool for developing cultural literacy and sensitivity which are vital to today's world. Superior language ability is a very important goal of the IR major.
