The Washington Semester in International Law and Organizations focuses upon the expanding role of law in governing relations among nations, while an interdependent world turns to multinational organizations in the making of global policy.

You spend 13 weeks in Washington, D.C., meeting with international law practitioners and visiting organizations that shape policy. Beyond this, you spend a week in New York City for a first-hand examination of the United Nations. You’ll cap your experience by flying to Europe for a series of seminars focusing on NATO and the European Union in Brussels; a visit to Strasbourg to examine the European Court of Human Rights; and then to The Hague for sessions on the International Court of Justice and the International Criminal Court.
