Established in 1789, Georgetown University is one of the world’s leading academic and research institutions. It provides students with a world-class learning experience focused on educating the whole person and engaging with different faiths, cultures and beliefs, preparing the next generation of global citizens to lead and make a positive difference in the world. Georgetown’s School of Foreign Service (SFS) is particularly selective and highly regarded. Since 2005, Georgetown’s Qatar campus offers the same highly ranked four-year SFS curriculum as in Washington D.C. The students – Qataris, non-Qatari residents, and international students – are ranked with their peers in D.C. as one single cohort. The curriculum offers four Majors: Culture and Politics, International Economics, International History, and International Politics, with ‘Certificates’ (minors) in Arab & Regional Studies, American Studies, and Media & Politics, and is underpinned by a Liberal Arts education across the social sciences and humanities. Research ranges across the same spectrum; the in-house Center for International and Regional Studies (CIRS) focuses particularly on the Middle East.The Qatar campus is an integral part of Georgetown University, while actively engaging with its local and regional environment.
