Intercultural relations

It is a multi-disciplinary academic field designed to train students to understand, communicate, and accomplish specific goals outside their own cultures.

It seeks to prepare students for interaction with cultures both similar to their own (e.g. a separate socioeconomic group in one's own country) or very different from their own (e.g. an American businessman in a small Amazon tribal society).

[2] Some aspects of intercultural relations also include, their power and cultural identity with how the relationship should be upheld with other foreign countries.

[5] Especially in today's global and multicultural world, students of intercultural relations can use their training in many fields both internationally and domestically, and often pursue careers in social work, law, community development, religious work, and urban development.

[10] However, in an increasingly globalized world, the broader discipline attracts persons from many backgrounds with many different career goals.
