Undergraduate Program

Junior Policy Seminars


The most distinctive aspect of the undergraduate experience in the School is the policy seminar for juniors. The School offers twenty to twenty-four seminars each year; sixteen to eighteen are offered in Princeton and four to six at overseas locations where the School has established programs. 

WWS juniors enroll in one policy seminar in the fall term and another one in the spring term. In each of these seminars, the students work together with a faculty director toward proposing solutions to current problems in public and international affairs. Each junior conducts a piece of research on a topic carefully chosen to shed light upon the larger problem that is central to the group.
