<p>Is there a difference between International Relations and International Studies?or are they the same</p>
<p>They are usually different. International Relations is the study of diplomacy...the way nations deal with each other. International Studies is generally the study of cultures.</p>
<p>IR is usually political
IS is usually cultural</p>
<p>oooh, i never knew that.
the IS major at Emory is not cultural.</p>
<p>would I major in International studies if I wanted to work for the World Health Organization in the future? I want to focus on the continent Africa and deal with the AIDS pandemic.</p>
<p>wouldn't you also look at the major of public health?</p>
<p>Ohiogirl,
You might get some good info by doing something like Googling "World health organization" and "bio" so you can see the backgrounds of people who work for the WHO.</p>
