Washington, DC GW
is...Creative. Evolving. Inspiring. T
he George Washington University has been transforming ideas into action in the heart of the US capital for close to 200 years. As the
world changes, GW evolves to address social, eco- nomic, technological, and political issues, linking stu- dents with unparalleled resources found exclusively in the nation’s most influential city. The University was created in 1821 through an
Act of Congress, fulfilling George Washington’s vision of an institution in the nation’s capital dedicated to edu- cating and preparing future leaders. Nearly two cen- turies later, the main campus sits only six blocks from the White House and continues to expand both in scope and architecture. The merger with the Corcoran College of Arts and Design, part of the historic and renowned Corcoran Gallery of Art, is creating inno- vative avenues for cross-collaboration. The Science and Engineering Hall—a 500,000-sq. ft., 14-story re- search hub—opened its doors in early 2015, expand- ing the possibilities for students to examine, explore, and pioneer the future.
It’s a big, complex world That’s why we offer more than 240 doctoral, master’s, and graduate certificate programs. Throughout our 10 schools and colleges and almost 100 research cen- ters and institutes, we help students gain the skills, knowledge, and experience to achieve their individual academic, personal, and professional goals.
All the world’s a classroom GW’s holistic approach to developing and nurturing current and future leaders extends beyond the phys- ical classroom. In addition to working with our distin- guished faculty, students gain confidence in conduct- ing research, developing policy, and effecting change through partnerships with organizations such as the World Bank, National Institutes of Health, Smithso- nian Institution, Library of Congress, Organization of American States, and all branches of the US federal government.
Turning possibilities into reality The University provides a variety of educational fund- ing options, ranging from teaching or research assis- tantships and fellowships to internships and loans. Our commitment extends beyond the promise of a dynamic and challenging graduate program. GW’s Career Center and school-based career services pro- vide workshops, one-on-one assistance, and employer connections to support job searches and career mo- bility. The Office of Alumni Relations supports and connects a lifelong network of more than 250,000 alumni throughout the world.
