About the author
The Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University is one of the best-known schools for international affairs in the United States. Georgetown says it was founded in 1919 through the vision of Fr. Edmund A. Walsh, S.J., with the goal of preparing students for commercial, financial, consular, and diplomatic work.
Over time, the school has grown into a broad home for the study of global politics, economics, history, business, culture, and security. Georgetown’s current materials describe undergraduate and graduate programs centered on international relations, with a strong emphasis on foreign language study, interdisciplinary learning, and engagement with real-world policy questions.
Its identity is closely tied to Georgetown’s Catholic and Jesuit heritage, especially the idea of service in the world. That mix of academic rigor, public purpose, and proximity to the institutions of Washington has made the School of Foreign Service especially recognizable to readers interested in diplomacy, foreign policy, and international leadership.
