FEATURED ARTICLE: Creating Sustainable Dual Degree Programs
Kristin M. Lord and Caroline Donovan White, The George Washington University

At The George Washington University’s Elliott School of International Affairs, we wrestled with how to create a sustainable dual degree program in international affairs with top foreign universities.

Today, the MIS program has grown to include partnerships with 16 different foreign institutions in the Americas, Asia, Australia, Europe, and the Middle East and we have plans to add three more partners within the coming year. The key to this program is that the Elliott School portion of the program is always the same, making it uniquely scalable.
