Huntsman vs Global Analysis @ Wharton?

[kajal8]

<p>Hi everyone,</p>

<p>What's the main difference between doing Huntsman or doing a secondary concentration in global analysis within Wharton? Obviously one is a dual degree and the other is more like a double major, but are the focuses different?</p>

<p>I have five years of language classes in a language that's not one of the target ones for Huntsman. The language that I would target there is one that I've had exposure to and experience with at home, but I'm not proficient in it at this time (though I could get to the level they want fairly easily). My main concern is if I target a language that's related to a geographic area/culture I'm heavily familiar with, would I be limited to studying that area/culture only or could I get a broader exposure to multiple areas?</p>

<p>I'm wondering if the work I'd need to put in language-wise is worth it to be eligible for this program, since I'd take advanced language classes (probably in languages other than Huntsman's target languages) and study abroad anyway.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>i would go with global analysis because aside from the fact that you would have to study abroad in the country of your target language, which you dont seem very interested in/ probably have already been to, for at least a semester, huntsman’s curriculum is very packed and it would be very difficult (but not impossible) to study multiple advanced languages or areas of the world.</p>
