"description": "<p>Students taking the International and Global Studies Minor will examine the interactions between nations and the political processes within nations using a variety of perspectives. International aspects focus on how countries interact with one another, and how the social and cultural systems within them affect these interactions. Global studies looks at intra-national factors, such as how a state's internal characteristics impact that state's political processes. Immigration, technological advancements and internationalization of foreign policy make global studies a complementary approach to international studies.</p><h2>Minor Requirements</h2><ul> <li>A minimum GPA of 2.0 is required in all courses used to satisfy the minor.</li> <li>Grades below \"C\" (2.0) in lower level courses are not accepted in the minor.</li> <li>At least nine hours used in the minor must be earned at UCF within the School.</li> <li>Double major/dual degree policy in Political Science programs and minors: <ol> <li>Students who major in any Political Science track, and minor in International and Global Studies, shall not count more than one course toward both programs.</li> <li>Students who double minor in Political Science and International and Global Studies shall not count more than one course toward both programs.
