Global Affairs is a multidisciplinary major within the Social Sciences that focuses on the study of global issues and global solutions in an increasingly interconnected world.
Why Global Affairs?
At the heart of Global Affairs, we strive to understand the underlying causes and consequences of transnational socio-economic, political and development challenges. The Global Affairs major at Yale-NUS draws its strength from an interdisciplinary perspective, empowering students to analyse inter-connected issues like international security and economic integration, migration, the politics of environmental degradation, public health and development, to name a few.
