search?view=catalog&academicYear=&q=INTNLREL&filterdepartmentcode-INTNLREL=on&filter-coursestatus-Active=on&filterterm-Autumn=on&filter-term-Winter=on&filter-term-Spring=on&filter-termSummer=on&page=0) on the Stanford Bulletin's ExploreCourses web site.
The Program in International Relations offers an undergraduate Bachelor
of Arts program, an honors program, and a minor in International
Relations.
Mission of the Undergraduate Program in
International Relations
The undergraduate program in International Relations is an
interdisciplinary undergraduate major allowing students to explore how
global, regional and domestic factors influence relations between actors
on the world stage. The program equips students with the skills and
knowledge necessary to analyze choices and challenges that arise in
this arena. IR majors pursue study in world politics, including courses in
political science, economics, history, and language, focusing on issues
such as international security, political economy, economic development,
and democratization. Students must spend at least one quarter overseas.
The major prepares students for careers in government and the corporate
sector, and for admission into graduate programs in law, business,
economics, and political science.
Learning Outcomes (Undergraduate)
The program expects its undergraduate majors to be able to demonstrate
the following learning outcomes. These learning outcomes are used in
evaluating students and the Program in International Relations. Students
are expected to demonstrate:
1. understanding of core knowledge necessary to understand
contemporary world politics.
2. ability to analyze international issues and draw correct inferences
using qualitative and/or quantitative analysis.
3. ability to write clearly and persuasively, communicating ideas clearly.
4. ability to evaluate theory and critique research within the discipline.
Coterminal Programs in Related Fields
It is possible for students majoring in International Relations to
work simultaneously for a coterminal master’s degree in a number
of related fields. Coterminal students should consult advisers in
both departments or programs to ensure that they fulfill the degree
requirements in both fields. For information on the M.A. program in
International Policy Studies, see the “International Policy Studies
(http://exploredegrees.stanford.edu/schoolofhumanitiesandsciences/
internationalpolicystudies/#masterstext)” section in this bulletin.
University requirements for the coterminal M.A. are described
in the "Coterminal Degree (http://exploredegrees.stanford.edu/
cotermdegrees)s" section of this bulletin. For University coterminal
degree program rules and University application forms, see the
Publications and Online Guides (http://studentaffairs.stanford.edu/
registrar/publications/#Coterm) web site.
Honors Program The International Relations honors program offers qualified students
the opportunity to conduct a major independent research project under
faculty guidance. Such a project requires a high degree of initiative and
dedication, significant amounts of time and energy, and demonstrated
skills in research and writing.
In their junior year, students should consult with prospective honors
advisers, choose the courses that provide academic background in their
areas of inquiry, and demonstrate an ability to conduct independent
research. Students can also select to complete an Interdisciplinary
honors thesis with other programs on campus.
Prerequisites for participation include a 3.5 grade point average
(GPA), a strong overall academic record, good academic standing,
successful experience in writing a research paper, and submission of
an acceptable thesis proposal. Students should submit their honors
thesis proposal late in Winter Quarter of the junior year; please check
with IR office for the exact deadline.Students are required to enroll in
INTNLREL 200A International Relations Honors Field Research, in Spring
Quarter of their junior year and should consider participating in Honors
College (http://www.stanford.edu/dept/undergrad/cgi-bin/drupal_ual/

must enroll in INTNLREL 200B International Relations Honors Seminar
in Autumn Quarter, INTNLREL 200C IR Honors Thesis Writing in Winter
Quarter, and in research units through INTNLREL 198 Senior Thesis each
quarter of their senior year (Autumn, Winter, and Spring) with their faculty
adviser. Honors students present a formal defense of their theses in midMay. Students must receive at least a grade of ‘B+’ in order to graduate
with honors in International Relations.
Bachelor of Arts in International Relations
Students are encouraged to declare by the end of their sophomore year
to ensure timely completion of the program. Students must submit an
acceptable major proposal to the Director of the Program in International

major, fulfilling International Relations as a secondary major, or who have
a minor, are also required to file a Major-Minor and Multiple Major Course

Students majoring in International Relations must complete a minimum
of 70 units (30 units of core courses as well as 40 units of specialization
