International Studies is very broad and can be applied to numerous employment opportunities ranging from accounting, to banking, to consulting, to politics, etc., etc. International Development Studies, while a worthwhile area of study, is typically reserved for certain specific facets of the options I just listed above. In other words, with Int’l Studies, you can narrow your focus.

Career options for Int’l Studies include a broker, translator (depending on the foreign language you study or minor in), travel agent, political representative, financial officer, geographic analyst, climatologist. It’s so very broad, that’s why I recommend it. You can tweak it to the interests you personally have.

I hope this helps! Good luck.
