American University (AU) is well known for its academic programs in international service, public policy and public affairs, international law, and human rights. AU鈥檚 School of International Service, through which this dual option is offered, is a top ten school for international relations. Through this partnership, AU applies some of the graduate credits earned at AGS toward its Master of International Service, thus reducing the number of credits that have to be completed in residence at AU. The complementarity of the two programs, their respective specific expertise in the field, and the school locations in two of the world鈥檚 main political capitals, make this association ideal for the study of international affairs. 鈥淭his partnership is an optimal match,鈥� says AGS鈥檚 president Eileen Servidio-Delabre. 鈥淲ashington, D.C., just like Paris, offers a wealth of political, cultural, educational and professional resources, as well as unique networking opportunities for students in international affairs. This makes both locations perfect for a combined academic and practical experience. In addition, AGS and AU share a strong commitment to peacebuilding, human rights, engagement in political activism, community service, and sustainable development.鈥� Other dual program options at AGS include a US-accredited M.A. in International Peace and Conflict Resolution in partnership with Arcadia University (PA, USA), a Master in Diplomacy and International Negotiation in partnership with Universit茅 Paris-Sud (France), and an LL.M. in French and European Law and Business Ethics in partnership with Universit茅 de Cergy Pontoise鈥檚 Law School.

The knowledge I acquired at AGS as well as my inter-personal and diplomatic skills, developed during my AGS days, come in handy today when dealing with different government officials, staff from various UN agencies, and even my colleagues in UNESCO who come from different cultural backgrounds.
