The Hertog Global Strategy Initiative Summer 2012

The Hertog Global Strategy Initiative Summer 2012: The History and Future of Religious Violence and Apocalyptic Movements

Join top scholars and policymakers for a total immersion summer course in New York City on Religious Violence and Apocalyptic Movements.

More than just classes, the Hertog Global Strategy Initiative is a one-of-a-kind opportunity for undergraduates, graduate students, and mid-career professionals to combine intensive academic study with original research and policy analysis.

The seminar will take place over ten weeks, from May 29 through August 2 2012, at Columbia University. It begins with two weeks of “total immersion” training on global religious violence. Following, there are seven weeks during which students conduct original research and collaborate on team projects. The class reconvenes in the first week of August for students to present their research and participate in a crisis simulation exercise. Participants then have four weeks to write an article-length paper based on their summer research. Students taking the course for credit will receive eight points, the equivalent of two semester-long courses at Columbia.

The seminar will be taught by Matthew Connelly, professor of international history at Columbia University; Monica Toft, director of the Belfer Center’s Initiative on Religion in International Affairs at Harvard University; and more than a dozen other renowned experts.

Learn from the experts and help set the agenda for governments, international NGOs, academia, and the media: May–August 2012.

Application Deadline: March 16, 2012
