| International Affairs Program Description |
| The Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS) is proposing a new Doctor of International Affairs (DIA). The program builds upon the existing Master of Arts (MA) and Master of International Public Policy (MIPP) to offer students an opportunity to pursue an advanced research degree tailored for experienced practitioners. Initial cohorts of approximately 10 students will largely be drawn from the military and intelligence community, where there is a demonstrated interest in and need for this type of program. However, the DIA will also be open to prospective students with backgrounds in any of the existing areas of concentration that SAIS offers. The curriculum and time to completion will vary depending on their prior educational background. |
