About our school

Think beyond the beltway

The Josef Korbel School invites you to think beyond the Beltway with innovative programs in international human rights, security, development, global trade and finance, international administration, global health, homeland security and humanitarian assistance. While our Rocky Mountain location provides an independent perspective on issues of domestic and international consequence, you'll stay connected to power centers through our efforts in Washington, D.C., New York and Boston.

Our unique programs emphasize the impact of policy on human welfare and illuminate the interconnectedness of our emerging global society. Our world-class faculty is dedicated to excellence in teaching and research. Our many co-curricular opportunities and for-credit internships provide key links between theory and practice.

Leaders shaping the world

The result is a dynamic, intellectually rigorous environment in which prospective leaders immerse themselves in experiential, policy-oriented research and learning. No wonder our graduates are sought after by employers around the world for their global, interdisciplinary perspective and sophisticated problem-solving skills.
