Certificate in International Development

ABOUT THE CERTIFICATE

The Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service created the Certificate in International Development in the Fall 2006 to educate students for careers in the field of international development.

The Certificate in International Development is designed to help students think critically about development as an urgent global challenge and as a contested theoretical field. The School's faculty -- a community of scholars and practitioners -- educate students to understand the many dimensions of global crises such as extreme poverty. While classroom teaching provides students with an understanding of the theoretical approaches to and outcomes of development, experiential learning opportunities in the developing world help them better understand the challenges of international development.
