Grand Strategy Information Session

Description:

Please join Professor Michael Brenes, Co-Director of the Brady-Johnson Program in Grand Strategy, for a Grand Strategy application information session.

The Brady-Johnson Program in Grand Strategy offers a year-long course (“Studies in Grand Strategy”) to Yale undergraduates and graduate students that addresses large-scale, long-term strategic challenges of statecraft, politics, and social change. The course encourages understanding of historical and contemporary global and domestic challenges, while developing students’ capacity for strategic thinking and effective leadership in a variety of fields.

In conjunction with the course, the program hosts a number of events and private dinners with practitioners such as diplomats, politicians, military personnel, journalists and media experts, and social activists. Recent guests have included Heather McGhee, James Comey, Michele Flournoy, Samantha Power, and Jim Mattis. “Studies in Grand Strategy” involves classroom seminars, group presentations of strategy briefs to high-level officials, and a summer fellowship. The program integrates academic study at the undergraduate, masters, pre-doctoral, and post-doctoral level and is open to current Yale students.

Applications are due November 3, 2023.

The session will be virtual. Please register to receive a Zoom link.
