Julien J. Studley Graduate Programs in International Affairs

About

The Julien J. Studley Graduate Programs in International Affairs inaugural semester began one week before the attacks of September 11, 2001, events that brought international affairs into the daily lives of New Yorkers. In these programs, faculty and students work together to define and explain the new realities of the 21st century, which requires a new approach to mobility and migration, the global economy, politics and culture, and relations between the Global South and the Global North.
