Global Affairs

When you enroll in our Global Affairs and Business major, you’ll take on a high-quality and rigorous curriculum in economics, politics and business, all built around our liberal arts core. But worldly knowledge isn’t enough. At AMU, you’ll learn how to let Christian ideals inspire your business transactions so that you can serve the Church and society loyally and generously.

1. See and understand the big picture. Our world is becoming more interconnected and interdependent. Discover the impact business decisions have on the world economy. Master the intricacies of the relationship between global business, culture, and politics.

2. Learn the language of globalization. Become proficient in discussing global issues such as the trade deficit and currency exchange rates. Find out how these seemingly remote topics impact your daily life.

3. Get a Catholic perspective on globalization. Globalization comes with many promises and perils. While business between nations has benefited many less fortunate countries, it also has created situations where natural law and human rights are sometimes violated. Using the lens of faith, you’ll learn how to properly interpret the signs of the times and evaluate different global policies in terms of their adherence to revealed truth and natural law.
