Choose where you want to go deeper.

Regional Concentrations provide a clear pathway for building depth in a particular part of the world through foundational study, advanced electives, language learning and a capstone.

New curriculum

If you declare GLAS from AY2027–28, a Regional Concentration forms part of your major requirements.

Year 1 in AY2026–27? Explore the Regional Concentrations now so that you can make informed course and language choices before declaring your major. Students admitted this year are expected to plan with the revised curriculum in mind.

Current curriculum

If you declared GLAS before AY2027–28, continue to follow your existing stream requirements.

Europe

Explore Europe through its histories, cultures, societies, politics and global connections.

East & Southeast Asia

Study the political, cultural, social and economic dynamics connecting East and Southeast Asia.

Spanish- & Portuguese-Speaking World

Connect Iberian, Latin American and transatlantic histories, cultures and contemporary global issues.

Global Electives

Not every GLAS course is tied exclusively to one region. Global Electives address areas outside the initial RCs or use interdisciplinary and inter-regional perspectives to examine processes that cross boundaries.

Structured, but flexible

Two additional electives allow students to deepen their RC, continue language study or explore broader GLAS/SMLC offerings. Relevant courses outside the pre-designated lists may also be approved where appropriate.
