Novelist and short story talent Richard Ford is currently teaching for a couple years at Bowdoin which is really amazing. His wife is teaching as well but she is an urban planner…in fact she was once in that office in New Orleans.
The Chem dept is great.
The Poli Sci dept is highly rated.
Can’t answer re the Int’l Studies angle. My S was very impressed with Bowdoin on a visit last year. Wonderful student body…strong but refreshing people and we liked the whole community. Maybe current students will respond but the website has a lot of info and they do answer emails!
