<p>.........bumf</p>

<p>all of them have good ones</p>

<p>I would not neglect to add Princeton or Georgetown.</p>

<p>Brown University?</p>

<p>George Mason actually has a very good IR program too. It's more Libertarian than most schools though, I believe.</p>

<p>Columbia, you have the UN down the street</p>

<p>Tufts fo sho.</p>

<p>West coast:Stanford</p>

<p>Gourman rankings for undergraduate International Relations:</p>

<p>Tufts
Princeton
Johns Hopkins
Georgetown
U Penn
Harvard
Cornell
U Wisconsin Madison
MIT
Stanford
UVA
Notre Dame
US Air Force Acad
US Military Acad
Claremont McKenna</p>

<p>Notre Dame doesn't even have IR...</p>

<p>GW and American both have great International Relations programs. Seperate undergraduate schools and everything. Plus they're in DC...best location for IR in the states.</p>

<p>The OP was interested in International Relations curriculum, not necessarily a major. Notre Dame's outstanding International Relations program is housed in the Political Science Department (which is the most popular major at Notre Dame, after Finance). Notre Dame graduates almast as many Poly Sci majors as Harvard.</p>

<p>Yale has an IR second major - you declare a primary major that you link to IR (most ppl do Polysci, many do econ or a foreign language/culture, some do some random stuff - you just need ot be able to link it) and then apply for IR, but as i recall most ppl do get into it. If you're looking for a blend of overall great academics and reputation, and then strength in that particular area, Yale or Princeton may be your best bet.</p>
