Program Description:

SIT Study Abroad Switzerland: International Studies & Multilateral Diplomacy (Summer)

 

Immerse yourself in the world of multilateral diplomacy and learn the art of conflict resolution and prevention in an international arena.

 

WHY GENEVA?

Build the skills and knowledge required for multilateral diplomacy at the center of the action: Geneva, where you’ll learn from top academics and experts at research institutes, United Nations agencies and other nongovernmental organizations. While immersed in the city of international diplomacy, you’ll enjoy Francophone culture and the summer splendors of Lake Geneva, such as swimming, boating, and picnicking. It’s a great opportunity to build your international network and make contacts with top experts on the use of multilateral diplomacy in conflict resolution and prevention, international humanitarian law, managing complex emergencies, and migration.

 

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