Global Development Studies (IDS)

International Development Studies (IDS) is a multidisciplinary study of how and why countries develop differently from each other. IDS programs provide students with a critical understanding of international development issues through exposure to a variety of academic disciplines, cultures, and, in the case of the specialist co-op program, an overseas work experience in the field of international development.
