    "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. The global studies perspective examines intra-national factors, such as how a country’s internal characteristics influence its political dynamics. Together, these approaches are complementary, as issues such as immigration, technological change, and the globalization of foreign policy connect internal developments with international relationships.</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.
