<p>Which schools have strong International Development programs?</p>
<p>Columbia U I suppose, but that may be just graduate level. Don’t know.</p>
<p>Programs with an international focus are listed under a broad range of titles across the various schools that offer them, e.g., international studies, global studies, international relations, etc. While there are some programs listed as “international development” it will not be the most common title for relevant programs. Many international studies/international relations programs require students to choose a thematic focus and, very often, one of these focuses on development. With this consideration in mind, the OP should search broadly for relevant programs and not limit the search to programs with the specific title of “international development.” In addition, across the many schools that offer relevant programs, there is a broad range of major, minors, and certificate programs in this area. With this consideration in mind, you’ll need to research the specific course requirements for these programs since the meaning of terms such as major, minor or certificate varies greatly across different schools.</p>
<p>A second consideration is that “international development” may refer to several different things. Usually, it refers to economic development, but it can also focus on social and political development. Other emphases may include globalization, health/nutrition, agricultural/rural development, urbanization, etc.</p>
<p>More helpful suggestions about specific schools could be given if the OP provided some information about his/her stats as well as more details about his/her specific interests in international development.</p>
