“At Georgetown I was taught by professors who are not only highly respected academically, but who also have had experience in policy making. That combination of their ability to synthesize academic theory and practical policy was extremely helpful.   That is a unique feature of the SSP.  In addition, being in Washington allows students extraordinary access to the security field.”
