From the School

The Institute of World Politics (IWP), an independent graduate school founded to fill a major national need: to supply professional education in statecraft, national security, intelligence, and international affairs that no other school offers and that few people acquire except through an entire career of on-the-job experience.

IWP is the only school whose curriculum covers all the arts of statecraft — the instruments of national power. The Institute offers a Doctoral Program, seven M.A. degrees in its Master's Degree Program, 18 Certificates of Graduate Study, and a Continuing Education Program. Some courses and degrees are also offered online.
