[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For some years, there has been an oversupply of IR graduates. Highly competitive to get a job in the field. Definitely not the best choice if the goal is a stable high-paying job. Maybe study Econ undergrad then do an MBA at someplace like UToronto or LSE, as a setup for an international business career. [/quote] Would getting a degree from a highly ranked program, like Georgetown’s SFS, help graduates find a job in this field?[/quote] Yes. Georgetown SFS is totally plugged in with career US Foreign Service community. Student needs to actively network with SFS faculty and the FS community while at SFS if they want to go that route. Success will not happen by accident. As a PP already noted, combining IR with a good minor (e.g., Econ, Stats) also helps differentiate. [/quote]
