Foreign Policy Magazine Ranks Programs in International Relations (news item)

http://www.foreignpolicy.com/story/c...id=3718&page=1

Foreign Policy Magazine has just published its 2007 survey results ranking the nation's top undergraduate, masters and PhD programs in international relations. Scholars in the field were asked to select the top five programs in the country. The rankings were compiled from those responses with the scores indicating the percentage of scholars who felt each program was one of the top five nationally.

In undergraduate programs Harvard edged Princeton just very slightly and both were significantly ahead of the third through tenth ranked institutions. In PhD programs, Harvard clearly led the pack with Princeton noticeably behind at second while Columbia and Stanford tied for third. In Master's programs, Georgetown and Johns Hopkins surged to the fore. Of particular note were some of the smaller schools without graduate programs where the undergraduate program was still ranked in the top ten. Dartmouth stands out on this list at number nine.
