<p>Just wondering, how is the IR program at Carnegie Mellon? Anybody here majoring in it (or global politics, or the equivalent) wanna share their experiences? I've checked out some of the schools that have recognized IR programs like tufts, georgetown, etc., but I was wondering how CM fares when compared to those schools.</p>
<p>I don't think it's exactly CMU's strongpoint but CMU has a good public policy program so I doubt that IR is "weak". That being said I doubt that anyone can realistically recommend CMU over a school like GW or Georgetown for International Relations...and certainly not over Tufts either. IIRC International Relations was a secondary major only program and could very well still be so that says something. You can major in Political Science though.</p>
<p>Thanks, I'll look more into Tufts, GW, and the others.</p>
