About
The Blue Center for Global Strategic Assessment advances the interdisciplinary study of statecraft by bringing together leading scholars and practitioners, and supporting research and teaching related to national defense, diplomacy, intelligence, and international economic relations. The center has a particular focus on how states can use data to improve their exercise of statecraft in these domains.
People
The Blue Center is led by an executive director and overseen by a Board of Faculty Directors.
Events
Throughout the academic year, the Blue Center brings to campus scholars and government practitioners from around the world to participate in a series of lectures, panels, conferences, and other events. Students or faculty who would like to propose such events should contact the Blue Center directly. Funding is available to support limited administrative costs, such as speaker travel or lodging.
Opportunities
The Blue Center makes funding available to support members of the Jackson School and broader Yale community whose research advances the study of statecraft. Faculty can apply to lead one or two-year research initiatives, and students can apply for awards that support travel or other research project expenses.
Courses
The Blue Center supports teaching at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. Our courses are taught by faculty from the Jackson School and across the University, covering a wide range of topics from economic statecraft, to the practice of diplomacy, to the uses of big data.
