M.S. in Global Affairs
STUDY ABROAD
The
NYU Center for Global Affairs offers MSGA students opportunities for intensive coursework outside
of the US. Study abroad electives combine classroom sessions on the NYU campus with classes and
fieldwork in the host country. Led by NYU faculty and a CGA administrator, MSGA study abroad
courses provide an historical perspective while examining political, economic and cultural
realities firsthand. Students are engaged in relevant dialog on topics ranging from the environment
and sustainability, democratic transition, women and youth, education and national security. Low
student to faculty ratios make for an intellectually rigorous experience both in the classroom and
in the field.
