Global, International & Area Studies (GIAS) supports research crossing international boundaries, addressing global issues from deep knowledge of regional histories, languages, and societies.
Your gift helps us cultivate the next generation of scholars through innovative research, student fellowships, international exchanges, and more!
GIAS is the premier research and outreach hub at UC Berkeley, uniting international and area studies programs to address research questions that transcend national and regional boundaries. GIAS fosters synergies and partnerships with global organizations and leaders at home and abroad. In a world where every place is affected by distant events and where flows of people, materials, and ideas observe no regional limits, GIAS leads the way.
