The Graduate School of Political Management (GSPM) provides students the opportunity to explore beyond the classroom through their residency programs, which are offered both in Washington, D.C. and in locations across the globe.

Recent residencies have included Mexico City, Brussels and the United Kingdom. We are currently accepting applications for the next global perspective residency.
