We are excited to welcome Georgetown University's McCourt School of Public Policy to our University Partnerships Program!

Located in Washington, DC, Georgetown University’s McCourt School of Public Policy offers graduate programs for students interested in public policy, international development, and data science. With five programs of study, eight dual degree programs, and six global opportunities, McCourt provides students with a variety of pathways to continue their education and develop skills for careers in the public sector and beyond.

The McCourt School of Public Policy’s mission is to train ethically grounded leaders of tomorrow and provide them with the cutting-edge skills needed to make a positive impact in the world.
