How to become a program member

Program offerings are divided into a required core group and a series of elective groupings. Students are required to complete the core group (International System) consisting of three courses. Students must also select and complete three courses within a second thematic grouping of courses (except for the International Economics grouping which requires four courses). Three of the courses submitted to fulfill program requirements must be completed outside the student's field of concentration. Students are also required to complete a substantial research paper on some aspect of the international system.
