"I decided to apply to the International Relations programme because I felt that my studies would benefit me in the performance of my duties as a Staff Officer at the American Embassy in London. The programme has provided me with a much broader perspective and a better understanding of regional political affairs. I would highly recommend the programme to anyone interested in pursuing a career in the international arena. It has been challenging and rewarding, but most of all it has been fun."
