Since it&#8217;s inception in 2014, its graduates have gone into or developed rewarding careers at Boeing, Microsoft, the World Economic Forum, Port of Seattle, the former USAID, start-ups and other \u00a0organizations. One EMIS graduate even ran for local public office in the Seattle area recently. All gained valuable hands-on experience from capstone projects that dealt with real-world, often, wicked problems. They also acquired knowledge about international diplomacy at the annual Crisis Negotiation Simulation co-hosted with the United States Army War College. \u00a0Both events enhanced students&#8217; academic growth and professional development; in the process, their contribution enriched our School equally as much as the program shaped and expanded their global citizenship awareness.
