Graduate School Forum: Focus on Faculty

Graduate School Forum: Focus on Faculty

Attending a professional graduate program in international affairs should be more than an academic exercise-it should be a life-changing experience. A key ingredient is the faculty.  As you will see in the following pages, the faculty at these schools of international affairs work diligently to ensure that their students not only gain knowledge of the facts and theoretical underpinnings of the subjects they study, but also develop the analytical skills to assess and respond to immediate, real-world issues.

These practitioner academics often travel around the world, staying on top of their areas of expertise, and have the ears of current policymakers.  They can help you turn your interests and passions into a coherent plan of study so that you build the knowledge and skill sets you will need in the professional arena.
