Program Description:

SIT Study Abroad: Switzerland: International Studies and Multilateral Diplomacy
Examine the evolving role of multilateral diplomacy in international relations and responses to security challenges from the center of Geneva.

WHY STUDY ABROAD IN SWITZERLAND?

A global hub for diplomacy, Geneva is home to more than a dozen major international organizations such as the Red Cross, World Health Organization, United Nations agencies, and the World Trade Organization. While delving into high-level multilateral diplomacy, you’ll enjoy the gastronomic and cultural riches of this city and bohemian districts like Carouge, a Mediterranean-style hamlet modeled after Nice. You’ll meet with experts in Paris to discuss different issues related to international security and diplomacy from a French perspective, and you’ll go to the European Union headquarters in Brussels to get acquainted with issues involving the EU.

Please visit the SIT Study Abroad website for details on the program highlights and details of coursework, educational excursions, and housing.

"I learned about the importance and role of diplomacy and how the global playing field is changing from the world I grew up in. I also greatly improved my French skills through the French classes and my experience with my host family."
