Program Highlights
The Lauder School of Government, Diplomacy & Strategy offers an in-depth perspective on domestic and global politics and prepares students to become decision-makers, leaders, and scholars dealing with the most pressing issues of our times – from conflict to climate change and privacy.
As part of their degree, students have the opportunity to specialize in one of three areas of study: Diplomacy and Global Affairs; Security Studies and Counter-Terrorism; and Contemporary Middle East. In addition, students have the option to add a cluster in Business or in Media & Politics in their third year of studies.
The program combines theory with practice, and exposes students to real-life situations through workshops, simulations, internships (for credit), and meetings with key public figures.
The Lauder School of Government, Diplomacy and Strategy attracts outstanding students from around the world, and provides a pluralistic environment in which students can exchange ideas, while gaining unique networking opportunities. Our graduates go on to pursue Master's Degrees and PhDs at leading American, Israeli, and European universities. Many of our Alumni have pursued fascinating careers in the government, private sector, NGOs, and international institutions in Israel and abroad, as you can see here.
