Hi! Smith Class of 2022 here! I was also interested in IR and was disappointed that Smith didn’t have an IR major, but you can look into some of their other departments, such as government. When I visited for accepted students day, there were several gov classes that had an international focus. Personally, I sat in on a class called Elections Around the World- it was amazing and just from sitting in on one class, I knew so much when the French and UK elections rolled around! I definitely suggest you look into it, along with sociology and the other aspects of IR that you’re intrigued by. Smith does offer a five-college certificate in International Relations, so if you don’t mind taking classes off-campus, it’s definitely an option! You can find the details and requirements on their website I believe.
