Academics
Embrace your curiosity, and ask questions.
For instance: Is there a genetic basis for political attitudes? Does state building work in countries that experienced widespread human rights abuses? What does it mean to be an American? How do politicians make decisions and when can they change public opinion? How big of a problem is corruption in China?
Our faculty, graduate, and undergraduate students are answering these questions and others across six fields of study. Join us.
