In the world of increasing globalization in business, economics, politics, international relations, education, media, etc., it is imperative for our graduates to be equipped with linguistic and cultural knowledge to function as a global citizen who can distinguish themselves by demonstrating intercultural communication competence across languages and culture.  In order to reach that goal, this course provides students with opportunities to critically examine and analyze challenges that cultural collisions may produce through discussion, debate, team-based brainstorming, etc. The concept of UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, or defined as goals that balances the need for growth against the need to protect the quality of life in natural, social and cultural environments, serves as a critical lens in fostering students’ cultural sensitivity, which is the core of global citizenship: “Am I sensitive enough to recognize intercultural communication issues? Does my solution to the problem have enough room for development and yet is sustainable?”  Concurrent with class activities, students will also individually engage in his/her/their own research/project to complete and present to the class at the end of the course.  This course is designed to reintegrate students who have fulfilled the minimum IP (international Plan) requirement of a 26-week overseas experience with those practicing the discipline at Georgia Tech.  This course is required for IP students as well as ALIS/GEML/IAML majors.
