What is the GPIA?
The Graduate Program in International Affairs (GPIA) embodies the distinctive tradition of critical and engaged social thought of the New School. Faculty members combine practical experience in development work, the third sector, or in public advocacy with academic research that engages core problems of globalization and international affairs today. The student body is a diverse, vibrant combination of recent college graduates and professionals who are changing careers or adding to their qualifications.
