Sciences humaines – Études internationales (300.M0/M1) is a profile of the Sciences humaines pre-university program at Collège de Maisonneuve, leading to a Diploma of Collegial Studies (DEC) over four terms; the profile was previously known as Sciences humaines – Monde. It is oriented toward the study of international relations, global conflicts, humanitarian crises and human rights, migration movements, and environmental and identity-related issues, drawing on courses described by the college as unique to Maisonneuve within this field. The curriculum covers the principles of international law and the operation of international organizations such as the International Court of Justice, the UN, and NATO, the major conflicts shaping migration and their effects on populations, the foreign policy of Canada and major powers, environmental and migration issues from local and international perspectives, and international economic relations tied to trade, finance, and development. Learning activities described include a Model United Nations simulation in New York and an optional study trip to Peru tied to a history course. Students in this profile can also choose mathematics courses aligned with their intended university program's prerequisites. It suits students planning to pursue university studies in political science, international studies, communication, geography, history, or related social-science fields.
