International Commerce and Policy (ICP)

Are you interested in international work in the business, government or social sector? If so, the International Commerce and Policy (ICP) master's degree may be right for you. Our program is an innovative, interdisciplinary graduate program focused on the globalizing economy, taught in the heart of one of the world's centers for commerce and policy.

Unlike more traditional international affairs programs, the ICP track focuses on international, political, and economic issues such as trade, investment, regional integration, governance, and development. It differs from a traditional MBA program by emphasizing the political, social, and technological aspects of the international marketplace.

Classes are taught by the School of Public Policy's prominent faculty as well as experts from the private sector and government agencies, including representatives from the Department of Commerce, Office of the U.S. Trade Representative, the Federal Reserve, the U.S. International Trade Commission, and the Department of State. The student body, as culturally and professionally diverse as the faculty, also enhances the learning experience.

The program combines perspectives on business, technology, law, economics, and public policy, and gives students a unique skill set, preparing them for analytical and leadership roles in a wide range of careers in the dynamic world market of interconnected economies. These professional pursuits include global marketing, corporate planning, public service in national and international organizations, government relations, and private entrepreneurship.
