Because of the Department's international and interdisciplinary focus, it maintains close ties to several area and thematic studies centers on campus. In addition, the research interests of faculty and students have led to Department links with the School of Criminal Justice, the Department of Parks, Recreation and Tourism, the MSU Museum, and other units.
