Indo-Pacific Studies Minor

The Indo-Pacific is a dynamic region that is shaping the world we live in. Regardless of your major, your career will be impacted by what occurs in this region. Not only does the Indo-Pacific represent an intersection of cultures and civilizations, but due to the complex web of influences and challenges, understanding its past, present, and future requires an interdisciplinary approach.

This minor prepares students to operate in a world increasingly connected through the Indo-Pacific. An initial required course provides an interdisciplinary introduction to forces shaping the region, key actors, and potential challenges. Subsequently, you will pick your own area of specialization in courses from three required fields:

History
Modern Language
Political Science & International Affairs

We also offer minors in International Affairs, Political Science, Indo-Pacific Studies and Public Administration & Public Service.

Our Commitment To Our Students, Faculty, And Staff

At the University of North Georgia, we deeply value and uphold the cherished right of every American to freely express themselves. It is a hallmark of our history, our tradition, and permeates our culture. As a distinguished Senior Military College, with a legacy spanning over 150 years, we take great pride in our role of cultivating leaders who tirelessly defend these fundamental freedoms for all citizens. The legacy of our graduates in this regard is second to none.

As campus leaders, our primary responsibility is to cultivate an academic environment that ensures this exchange of ideas and the safety of our community. Across all five campuses, we are committed to fostering a welcoming atmosphere where individuals feel empowered to freely express themselves and engage in exploration and learning. However, it is essential that these rights are exercised in a manner that upholds our academic mission, preserves the safety of all, and is in accordance with our institutional policies, without unlawful behavior. This means breaking the law, harassment, intimidation, trespassing, violence, and other criminal acts will not be tolerated at the University of North Georgia.

Together, let's uphold the principles of respect, understanding, and civility as we equip our students to walk toward their purpose.

Bold Forward!
