The Princeton School of Public and International Affairs provides a doctoral program in Public Affairs with two specialization areas: Security Studies, and Science, Technology, and Environmental Policy (STEP). Alumni typically enter academic positions, governmental organizations, policy research institutions, nonprofit groups, and corporate environments.
To be eligible for admission to the Graduate School applicants must, before they are enrolled, hold a bachelor’s degree or its foreign equivalent from an accredited college or university. (Foreign equivalents may in some cases have a normal program length that is shorter or longer than four years. No degree that has a normal program length shorter than three years will be considered equivalent to a bachelor's degree.)
Admitted students who score below an 8.0 on the speaking subsection of the IELTS will be required to take an English placement test at Princeton.
Masters applicants who are required to take the TOEFL must score a minimum of 28 on the spoken part of the TOEFL in order to be considered for the program.
Application Deadline: December 1.
