No. Students are welcome to sign up for an internship (GLBL 497), but it will not count towards the minor. 

There are two separate issues:

  1. Whether SSU will accept the classes from the University in which you study
  2. Whether the classes will count towards the Global Studies Major

For the first issue, all CSU-IP programs are guaranteed to transfer. If you choose a different study program, the courses are likely to be accepted because SSU accepts courses from accredited Universities throughout the world. But, be sure to choose an upstanding Study Abroad program.  

For the second issue, the Global Studies Coordinator, Prof. Rheyna Laney, will decide if the classes will count toward the minor.
