Professor Ruchi Anand Teaches an International Relations Summer Course at Princeton |
Tuesday, 19 June 2018 |
In July and August, Prof. Ruchi Anand will participate in the Junior Statesmen of America summer program at Princeton University, teaching an intensive summer course on International Relations. Dr Anand has taught in the JSA programs since 2001, at Princeton as well as at Georgetown and Stanford. The JSA programs, which have been in existence for over 80 years, are aimed at outstanding high school students who have a strong interest in government and politics and demonstrate a capability to undertake a program tailored around the lines of an undergraduate seminar. Some of the most notable JSA alumni include former US Secretary of Defense and former Director of the CIA Leon Panetta, former Press Secretary Mike McCurry, and former Attorney General Edwin Meese, among many others. “Teaching to these young motivated all-rounded students with a passion for international relations in an Ivy League setting is a perfect complement to teaching to slightly older but equally passionate AGS students during the rest of the year. I hope to welcome some of these JSA students at AGS in a few years for their graduate studies – or maybe even before then, for a short study abroad experience in Paris – one of the capitals of world politics!” More information on the program on the www.jsa.org website |
