The Jackson School’s graduate alumni population includes those who graduated from the Global Affairs degree program and its predecessor, the International Relations program.
Recent alumni have left Yale to take on positions in the public, private, non-profit, and intergovernmental sectors.
Class of 2024 master’s program graduates are making an impact in diverse and impressive roles in global locations including Washington, DC; London; Taipei; Dakar, New York City; Sejong City; Dhaka; Boston; and Kigali. Alumni have secured high-level roles across multiple sectors including government, finance, consulting, international development, and the military. Notable positions include Founder and CEO, Chief of Staff, Senior Policy Advisor, and Principal Global Economist.
Our joint-degree graduates found success in fields that intersected their two areas of study, including roles with Google’s Jigsaw, Ayala Corporation in the Philippines and the Chartis Group.
Alumni from earlier classes include the first female UK Ambassador to China, the former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine, the U.S. Treasury Representative to the EU, foreign government officials, senior private sector chiefs of investment, and researchers.
Alumni are an active part of the Jackson community, often returning to campus to mentor students and engage in career planning conversations. Alumni also speak to students during our annual networking trips to Washington, D.C. and New York City.
