PUBLIC SERVICE AND GLOBAL AFFAIRS School of Public Service and Global Affairs JEFFREY H. BLOODWORTH, PhD. Program Director Public Service & Global Affairs (PSGA) is an inter-disciplinary major rooted in the study of Global Languages, History, Legal Studies and Political Science. The major is intended to intellectually and vocationally prepare students for careers in public service and global affairs. In pursuit of this, the major mandates study abroad and internships while providing experiential education opportunities and embedding career preparation in its curriculum. The variety of courses and field experiences allow students the flexibility to build a curriculum and set of classes that jive with their interests and career goals. Vision Statement The Public Service and Global Affairs (PSGA) program seeks to attract talented students who have a global perspective and are culturally sensitive and internationally competent so that they can be effective workers and citizens of an increasingly global and diverse society, economy, and workplace. Our efforts will draw strength from Gannon’s Catholic Identity and emphasis on liberal learning, and contribute to the enhancement of the intellectual life of the University.
