<p>Can anyone tell me how the strength of the Political Science/International Relations programs at Swat compares to similar programs at the following schools:</p>

<p>Washington University in St. Louis
Georgetown
University of Chicago
Amherst College
Johns Hopkins
Williams
Middlebury</p>

<p>I'm interested in Asian studies specifically, and I plan on going to some form of higher degree, but I don't know if It'l be a PhD, or a JD or an MBA or something else. I just know I want to study International Relations undergrad, and want to find the best place to do it. Can anyone help me out? Also, does anyone know anything about the Peace and Conflict Studies Major?</p>

<p>UCSD has a very strong IR program focused on the pacific rim area, but does not give you the sort of small-college attention and education that you would find at other places on your list.</p>

<p>if you’re looking at IR, Tufts, just like Georgetown and Hopkins, should be on your list.</p>
