“My fellowship at The Institute of World Politics was a professionally enriching experience that continues to provide valuable insights in the areas of national security, statecraft, and public diplomacy in today’s complex, dynamic and uncertain world.” |
|
“Using my Post-9/11 GI Bill on IWP’s Master’s program was the greatest decision! The smaller class environment is extremely conducive to learning and building lifelong connections for a future in national security. Most importantly, IWP is understanding of military commitments and works with you closely to make sure you’re able to reach your education goals.” |

“A lot of times, professors and students at IWP also have a prior service background… The education here provides a foundation for anything that you could possibly want to do in intelligence, national security, or the diplomatic realm.” |
“The Institute of World Politics leads the way in developing those seeking to serve in international relations or the various national security career paths. Its uniqueness stems from its emphasis on the American founding principles and Western Moral Tradition, which provides a solid basis for understanding what one will defend and promote over the span of a career in the civil service.” |
“The education we have received at IWP has prepared us well for success beyond the walls of the institution.” |
“IWP broadened my field of vision drastically… I had the time and opportunity to sit down and read, really study, some of the things that were going on in Iraq and Afghanistan while I was there as an enlisted Marine.” |
“[IWP] is one of the best educational experiences available if you are (or aspire to be) a national security professional in either a civil or military capacity. What I got from IWP continues to pay dividends in my career.” |
“I liked the idea of learning from practitioners who have sat in the seats that I aspire to one day. There wasn’t one professor I didn’t respect or didn’t like in any of my classes.” |
“Dr. Streusand’s Geography and Strategy and General Jajko’s Military Strategy courses both provided an opportunity to explore the Marine Corps’ operational and even strategic role as force projector throughout the world and especially in the Pacific, and how our ability — with the Navy — to control or influence geographic features in the world’s commons is essential to American relevance in all regions.” |
“The critical thinking and analytic skills within the Institute of World Politics BSAP program will serve me well in the future.” |
“I think I have a broader understanding now of the workings of the whole of government, and what happens when there is no viable strategic vision.” |
“IWP gave me a lot to think, read, and write about. Another great aspect was the percentage of active-duty and veteran students, which gave a sense of connection and community.” |
“I cannot believe how much I have learned in only nine months, and how much I did not know about the world before beginning this program. I wish I had many of these lessons before my deployments. They would have been helpful.” |
“The course of study at IWP under scholar-practitioners is timeless, important, and consequential. It is so important that you can’t not take this journey.” |
