Become a Scholar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Hamilton Scholars are a select group of highly motivated students who wish to have a globally focused career in the business, government, not for profit, or humanitarian areas. Hamilton Scholars is primarily an academic program in which the participants focus on completing all of the requirements for the two different degrees; however, the program also provides many professional and social activities for the scholars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hamilton Scholars complete a major in the Poole College of Management \u2013 Accounting, Business Administration or Economics as well as a Bachelor of Arts in International Studies, World Languages, Anthropology, Political Science (International Politics) or History within the College of Humanities and Social Sciences. In doing the program, Hamilton Scholars expand their knowledge in a foreign language and continue to pursue their international interests with a study abroad program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our goal is to produce well-rounded professionals who are knowledgeable about international issues and have skills to function successfully in cross-cultural settings. In an ever-increasing global economy and interconnected world, Hamilton Scholar graduates emerge as highly qualified and competitive individuals.<\/p>\n\n\n
