2009 Global Programs Application

While there are over twenty "Global Programs" opportunities available through the International Relations Program, only a select few are actually administered by the International Relations Program, itself; the majority are administered by SU Abroad, the University's study abroad office.  SU Abroad has an online application process accessible through their website.  Programs administered by IR require that students complete the application form below.  This form is required for any student who is interested in participating in any of the following global programs:

• War and the Liberal Conscience (3-credits, spring course in London)
• African Development Seminar (3-credits, Maymester course in DC)
• Latin America Policy Seminar (3-credits, Maymester course in DC)
• DC Summer Practicum Program (6-credits, summer course & internship in DC)
• Global Security & Development Program (fall courses & internship in DC)
• Global Europe Program (fall course & internship in Europe)

Admission to these programs is limited due to class size and program resources and support.  Program Directors and, in some cases, a selection committee, are responsible for reviewing applications and selecting candidates for admission.  The three central criteria for admission to these programs are relevance to program of study, potential for successful participation, and motivation.  Please respond to the program information questions carefully with these criteria in mind.
