Study Public Policy in the Nation’s Capital

The Honors Seminar on Public Policy and Global Affairs provides a unique “study abroad” experience in our nation’s capital. The program includes internships with non-profit and governmental organizations and weekly seminars that allow students to engage directly with leaders that influence domestic and international affairs. Students are exposed to a range of public policies that influence global economic prosperity, national security, and America's role in the broader international community.
