LACs and small Unis strong in Intl Studies/Intl relations/polysci

Right now on my list...

Middlebury
Brown
WashU
Colgate
And the schools in DC (Gtown, GW, etc)

How are Amherst, Williams, Bowdoin, Pomona in the areas of Intl Studies/relations or polysci/econ development, etc?

Check out Macalester.

If you are visiting the DC schools, take a look at American. Some people end up preferring it to the two Georges.

East coast: George Washington University and Boston University, International Relations is BU's most popular major in CAS.
Quote:
The Department of International Relations at Boston University offers a Bachelor of Arts degree in International Relations as well as Bachelor of Arts degrees in East Asian Studies, Latin American Studies, and East European Studies, through the College of Arts & Sciences (CAS). International Relations is the most popular undergraduate major in CAS. The department attracts many students who complete double majors or minors in IR and related majors such as political science, economics, or foreign languages. The multidisciplinary requirements allow students to integrate these other majors and minors into their IR curricula without requiring extra semesters of study.
