Student Voices

JIANG HAOLIE, CLASS OF 2021

Global Affairs is like a Swiss [Army] knife you need. It is cross-cutting, gives you lots of tools and lenses, is relevant and grounded.

ANMEI ZHENG, CLASS OF 2021

Global Affairs is the perfect mix of theory and practice. I like that GA offers frameworks to study the world but also space to interact with what is actually happening in governments and on the ground.

Global Affairs courses have challenged me to explore both transboundary and local issues I deeply care about while also being practical and critical about existing solutions.
