The Graduate School of Public and International Affairs offers both a master's degree (MPIA) and a PhD with a focus on public and international affairs. Master's students choose one of three concentrations: Security and Intelligence Studies, Human Security, or International Political Economy. All provide the skills necessary for a career in the government, nonprofit, or private sector, focusing on international relations, national security, international economics, diplomacy, human rights, cybersecurity, and other globally oriented fields. Doctoral students concentrate their studies in public policy, public administration, international affairs, and/or international development, honing their analytical and research skills for a career in policy or academia.
