Indie Major: Mariam Vargas

Individualized Major: International Relations

Graduation Date: May 2025

Why Individualized? To go deeper into International Relations classes

    Most memorable course or project from your major? "The Politics of Torture" (POLS 3428), "Introduction to Genocide Studies" (HRTS 2200), and the Capstone project I wrote on "Transitional Justice." 

    An individual who inspired you? All of the professors in the Political Science Department and the Human Rights Institute who focus on studying and understanding some of the worst of humanity and who still show up and connect with us students daily!

    Future plans? Rangel Fellowship, interning at the Hill this summer, and a Masters of International Relations program in the fall!
