Academics & Degrees
Driven By Inclusive & Intellectual Excellence
Our unique interdisciplinary programs unpack how social, environmental, political and economic intersections shape global affairs. We emphasize real-world experience through study abroad opportunities, internships and simulated debates, equipping you with both the theoretical framework and hands-on experience you'll need to put ideas into motion.
We challenge you to think critically and explore solutions to the most pressing challenges of our time: responding to new and emerging security threats, advancing human rights and social justice, making the global economy fairer and more inclusive, combating climate change, and resisting threats to democracy around the world. We give you the skills you will need to be an effective leader on these and other critical global issues.
