Wisconsin International Studies Major Association (WISMA)
By establishing and maintaining a strong sense of community, the Wisconsin International Studies Major Association aims to create a network of fellow Badgers with a passion for international affairs. We invite current International Studies Majors and International Relations Alumni, as well as professionals in internationally related fields, to join, reconnect, network, and share their professional experiences with current undergraduates. In addition, WISMA aims to enhance the undergraduate experience of current WISMA members by fostering relationships amongst members and providing them with stimulating events and opportunities related to the major.
