The Institute of World Politics seeks a culturally diverse student body in order to bring to the classroom an authentic experience in cultural differences and cross-cultural communication and understanding.
The Institute's student body is divided among four general categories:
- Recent graduates from colleges and universities with a career interest in international affairs, intelligence, or national security
- Personnel from foreign affairs, intelligence, defense and commercial agencies of the U.S. government
- Journalists, business executives, lawyers and others with professional interests in foreign affairs
- Foreign diplomats, government officials and students.
With this kind of diversity, students in the Institute's programs will be able to enrich their education by exposure to the practical concerns and experiences of members of the student body itself.
