Answer 1

dognhorsemom is, as always, correct. No point in going to Georgetown School of Foreign Service, unless you have a reason other than prospective career to go there: few of its grads actually go to work for the State Dept.

Harvard Law School is good: a recent ambassador to Malaysia went there. But whatever education broadens your mind and gives you insight into history, geography and international affairs is good.

Languages are important, but in fact under the law and regulations you only need to learn one beyond English. It's just that among the ranks of the most successful FSOs are those who learned hard languages well.

So: if you want to study in NY that leaves Columbia and NYU. If Middle Eastern affairs interest you, try to study under Noah Feldman (NYU Law School, but you could equally work with him if you studied in their grad school).

Answer 2

I work for the foreign ministry of a Western country, doing foreign policy. You would not know it if you looked at my resume (ex-soldier, ex- newspaper sub-editor, ex-ESL teacher, ex-computer programmer, ex-customer service delivery analyst).

Doghorsemom is right. You need to have a love of learning about the world, ideally tied with an economics or law degree (though I have neither). It attracts eccentrics and ordinary guys, radicals and blue-bloods, hawks and doves.

It is not a job for prima donnas - you could be expected to do put in long hours and perform tedious chores that are found in any workplace. Much of the work is about sharing information and building consesuses - teamwork and communication skills count. Above all, have excellent writing skills.

You will be paid a public servant's salary too. The odds are getting in are small. Try developing a career somewhere else, and then try to move in.

Answer 3

There is no best school. Diplomats come from an extremely wide variety of backgrounds, specialties, prior employment, college majors, areas of the US, and life experience. The important thing is not to study diplomacy - you can't really do that, anyway - but to study what you love and be extremely aware of the world around you in all of its complexities.

Oh, and pass the Foreign Service exam.

Answer 4

Tufts University's Fletcher School of Law & Diplomacy. It's just outside of Boston.

Answer 5

Close, but the best for what you want is American University in Wash. DC. Almost all of them are poli-sci majors and intern in a federal position. Good contacts for that kind of stuff, related work experience.

Answer 6

Harvard
