The ellioTT SchooloF iNTeRNATioNAl AFFAiRS
The mission of The ellioTT school of inTernaTional affairs is:
• To educate the next generation of international leaders
• To conduct research and produce scholarship that advances understanding of important global issues
• To engage the public and the policy community in the United States and around the world,
thereby fostering international dialogue and shaping policy solutions
our mission is to create knowledge, share wisdom and inspire action to make our world a better place.
Mission
A recent survey of scholars ranked the Elliott School’s undergraduate and graduate
programs in the top 10. Only five schools in the world were ranked this highly in
both categories. It’s an impressive club.
It’s also an important club. The issues we study at the Elliott School—ranging from war and
peace to poverty and development—affect the lives of billions of our fellow human beings.
Powerful international dynamics—population growth, rising levels of resource consumption,
the expansion of the global economy, mounting environmental challenges—will shape the
world in the decades ahead. Wise policy and effective international cooperation will be more
important than ever. At the Elliott School, the study of international affairs is not an abstract
exercise. Our aim is to make our world a better place.
The Elliott School is in a unique position to make a difference. Our location in the heart of
Washington, DC—just steps from some of the most influential U.S., international and non-
governmental organizations in the world—enriches our teaching and research, and it provides
us with unmatched opportunities to engage the U.S. and international policy communities.
The Elliott School is special, not just because of where we are, but who we are. As you will
see in this Annual Report, our scholars, students and alumni are extraordinarily talented
and dedicated, united by a passion for international affairs and a commitment to others,
and they are accomplishing great things. The Elliott School community is one of the largest
networks of international affairs experts in the world, and this further magnifies our impact
on the world.
I am grateful to the members of the Elliott School community for their exceptional
commitment to our collective endeavors. I am especially grateful to our many donors for
their generous support of this wonderful and important institution. Gifts from donors are
having transformational effects on our students and faculty, on our teaching and research,
and on our ability to make a difference in the world.

In the 21st century, international decision makers will need cross-disciplinary knowledge,
cross-cultural perspectives, keen minds and compassionate hearts. At the Elliott School, we
prepare our students for this future. Undergraduates study an interdisciplinary liberal arts
program that draws on anthropology, culture, economics, geography, history, languages,
political science, science and technology. Graduate students combine rigorous academic
courses with professional training, including skills courses on topics ranging from political
analysis to leadership. Students come to the Elliott School from many different parts of the
globe. They leave the Elliott School prepared to make a difference.

The ellioTT school earns disTincTion
A March 2007 survey of scholars published in Foreign Policy magazine recognized the Elliott School’s excellence. This survey ranked our undergraduate programs as number 10 in the United States and our graduate programs as number seven. Only five schools in the country merited top 10 recognition in both categories: Columbia, Georgetown, Harvard, Princeton and The George Washington University.
Our students earned numerous honors in 2006-2007. Within GW, Krystin Borgognone received the Sitter Scholarship, Yonit lax received the Distinguished Scholar Award, roman Balin received the Wilbur J. Carr Prize, Zoe cooprider received the Elliott School Alumni Association Prize and ryan John demerlis received the GW Alumni Association Prize. Our students also achieved national distinction.

“When I first came to GW, I established immediately that GW students were competitive with those from any school in the country. I have
thoroughly enjoyed teaching them for the past 35 years, in many instances becoming their friend for a lifetime. There is no greater satisfaction than
seeing them succeed. I’m thrilled to win the Harry Harding teaching award and thank the Elliott School and especially the students for this honor.”

“Though I went on to get an MBA from Wharton, it was GW that fostered my love for international affairs and international economics, leading me to work all over the globe. Thus, giving to GW was an easy decision. I wanted to make sure other students could benefit from a GW education the way I had. My professors were experts in their fields, whether that field was academia, government or industry. The District of Columbia was my university. I traveled to international law libraries, the Library of
Congress and any relevant institute to do research for courses. Averell Harriman, diplomat, statesman and former U.S. ambassador to the Soviet Union, led my small group seminar. His wife, Pamela Harriman, sat in the back of the room for every class. I was in the center of the political universe! When my daughter was ready to go to college, we decided we wanted to start a family tradition,
mother then daughter, at GW. Maybe if I have a granddaughter, she will continue the tradition.”

sTudenTs learn inside The classroom and ouT
On campus, our diverse student body enriches our community and the education we provide. Our students come from 49 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, 56 countries and countless ethnic groups. They are recent high school and college graduates, young members of the workforce and seasoned professionals. Our mid-career master’s program included diplomats from the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the office of the president of the
Czech Republic; a New York Times correspondent and a journalist from the Xinhua News Agency.
Our students do not simply read about newsmakers; they meet and question them directly. For instance, our distinguished Women in international affairs series hosted Paula dobriansky, under secretary of state for democracy and global affairs; dana Priest, Pulitzer Prize-winning correspondent for The Washington Post; omani ambassador hunaina sultan ahmed al mughairy, the first female ambassador from an Arab country to the United States; and nancy Birdsall, president of the Center for Global Development.
Students also learn off campus by engaging the larger Washington, DC community. Two students of European and Eurasian studies, Kate hall and stephen mintz, presented their proposals for the future of the European Union to 27 ambassadors at the German Embassy. A class assignment on enhancing student exchange programs through technology resulted in an invitation for alberto

Undergraduate students pursued internships at many organizations, including: U.S. Departments of State, Commerce, Defense and Treasury; Export-Import Bank; Heritage Foundation; Human Rights Campaign; Jane’s Information Group; U.S.-China Business Council; and the Woodrow Wilson Center. To prepare undergraduates for pro-fessional life after GW, the Career Center provided resume writing and interview workshops and campus interviews with employers.
At the graduate level, more than 75 percent of our students complemented their studies with intern-ships or paid employment. The Elliott School’s Graduate Student Career Development center pro-vided alumni mentoring, resume critiques, site visits to employers, career fairs, online career listings and
workshops that teach networking, job search strate-gies, interviewing skills and salary negotiations. It engaged employers through on-campus interviews and company site visits. Employer visits to the school increased 162 percent over the previous year.
An Elliott School education extends across the globe, giving students direct knowledge of other cultures and perspectives. In 2006-2007, 377 undergraduates and 51 graduate students studied in 47 countries. International development studies program students worked on aid organization projects in Bolivia, Ghana, honduras, india, Kenya, liberia, mexico, sierra leone, Tanzania and uganda, gaining valuable experience on the front lines of economic development. Our students also benefited from exposure to the hundreds of international students at GW, and the 60 students from 29 countries who joined our graduate programs as full-time degree students, exchange students or through our master of international studies (MIS) dual-degree program. The MIS allows students to earn degrees from elite foreign universities as well as the Elliott School.

“I’ve found that contributing to the Elliott School has been very rewarding. It’s been very fulfilling to be a part of building a first-class institution with a growing international reputation. But more than that, as compared to
contributions to other institutions with a history of large endowments, I’ve felt that my contributions have had more impact and therefore meant more at the Elliott School. In addition, as a contributor, I’ve been made to feel part of the community and have been welcomed for my insights and energy as much as my monetary commitments. All in all, giving to the school has been a terrific
experience, and one where I felt that I was making a real difference.”
