The Global Governance, Politics, and Security (GGPS) Program provides students with the knowledge and analytical skills for meaningful careers in international affairs and public service. Our students operate within the complex governance structures that manage international challenges, and work in the public and private sector to promote national and international security goals. The GGPS curriculum provides the expertise and experience necessary to turn individual passions into rigorous analysis and practical solutions. The Global Governance, Politics, and Security Master's Degree Program (GGPS) degree requires 36 credit hours of graduate coursework, including a capstone, that can be completed in two years (full-time) or up to six years (part-time). Our program takes a multidisciplinary approach to understanding relations among and beyond states and societies on the global stage. We prepare international affairs professionals with a grounding in global history, political dynamics, and economic systems, as well as the methodological tools and practical skills needed to make sense of data and transform rigorous analysis into innovative policies and programs in the fields of global governance and global security.
