"MAPSS is perfect for those who enjoy interdisciplinary studies. After three years in the London School of Economics, reading a BSc Econs, I intended to take up more advanced Economics courses in the highly reputable department at the UofC. Yet, the flexibility afforded by the MAPSS course structure opened up my options. While shopping for classes in the first weeks of school, I decided to branch into international political economy. Combining courses in the Harris school, the Graduate School of Business, and the political science department, the cross-disciplinary nature of the MAPSS program allows me to tailor my degree to my interests and strengths. Besides providing academic support, the faculty and staff are excellent listeners and mentors. It particularly heart-warming to receive emails from Professors and staff when I was in London during the bomb blasts. Though busy with their own work and research, they have been most approachable and caring. A year of intensive work, and plenty of lovely memories!"

Jessica Robinson (MAPSS'05)
PhD Candidate in the Department of Anthropology, The University of Chicago


"As an international student interested in studying in the USA, I chose the MAPSS program because it offered me the chance to gain a graduate degree without blindly committing to five to ten years on the other side of the world. The University of Chicago offered the perfect environment to build on what I learnt as an undergraduate at Cambridge University, giving me a real sense of graduate study in the Social Sciences in the US (both the pros and cons), and the chance to really think critically about what I wanted to study and why. The help and support of the faculty, especially within MAPSS but across the University too, was more than I could have asked for. I graduated from MAPSS with a real sense of what I want to do, and have received great support and advice to help me achieve these goals."

Evelyn Krache Morris (MAPSS'03) PhD Program, Georgetown University

"I have a 5 year fellowship at a top research university in my field, and met wonderful mentors and friends among both the students and the faculty. The MAPSS program exceeded my expectations, and I am grateful every day that I went to U of C."
