APSIA schools help students transform into meaningful agents of change. Our graduates work for peace, expand prosperity, build organizations, lead governments, and protect their fellow citizens.

To join the Association of Professional Schools of International Affairs, schools must demonstrate their excellence in career-focused, graduate-level, international affairs education.

Other degree programs may attach a few international aspects to their curriculum. APSIA members combine broad preparation in critical thinking, quantitative analysis, public communications, project management, and teamwork with deep regional, cultural, and economic expertise.

APSIA schools stress the application of theory to practical issues. They embrace the flexibility needed to navigate the changes of the world. They know that the changes of tomorrow are rooted in the context of today and the history of each place. So, they provide the tools to evaluate trends across a global landscape now and in the future.
