Many of the schools listed in Foreign Policy magazine IR ranking list does not have IR degree conferring programs. (not very useful for selecting schools for IR majors)

They create a list of undergraduate ranking of schools such as Harvard, Princeton, Columbia, UC Berkeley, Yale, Dartmouth, UMichigan, Swarthmore, UCSD, Cornell, Williams, Duke…do not offer IR BA/BS degrees not have a dedicated IR faculty or staff, not do they have IR departments.

They have strong political science departments though! Academics are much more familiar with graduate programs than undergraduate programs (which explains why Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, etc… are among the very best)
