Many faculty members conduct research, and students have the opportunity to assist them, as well as to conduct research of their own, present their findings, and publish their scholarship.

“Research is detective work and that is what truly appealed to me… I try to focus on what gets me excited, and that is really appealing to students’ imaginations and framing it in the context of discovery.” –

Zaheer Ahmed

“I was fortunate enough to have a couple of ambassadors and former ambassadors as professors, [and that] opened a whole new universe to me of opportunity. So, my time at the School of Foreign Service was really formative, and I am glad I can lean on it in some respects as ambassador.” –
