簡介內容 | The Monterey Institute began as the dream of a Frenchman who came to Monterey to teach French and German at the Army Language School (now the Defense Language Institute). Gaspard Etienne Weiss, with the backing and support of Remsen Bird, retired president of Occidental College, established an institute based on the revolutionary concept that a “living language should be taught as such: French in French, German in German, etc.” In 1955, the Monterey Institute of Foreign Studies offered summer language and culture classes; year-round degree programs began in 1961 and the Institute was renamed the Monterey Institute of International Studies in 1979. The Monterey Institute of International Studies provides a rigorous graduate education for students who seek professional careers in international settings.
Practical use of multiple languages Language and communication are central to everything we do. All Institute programs are based on students learning and operating in languages beyond their native tongues. Four interconnected, interdisciplinary graduate schools The Institute's four schools are leaders in their fields. They combine cutting-edge interdisciplinary programs, personalized attention, professional development, and the practical use of languages. Applied research In addition to the world-renowned Center for Nonproliferation Studies, the Institute hosts several other research centers that pursue extensive agendas in international policy and globalization issues. These centers attract scholars, journalists, and diplomats from around the world and bring international issues to the forefront of instruction on campus. Great teaching Outstanding facilities, technology, and other resources are important, but the strength of the faculty determines quality in graduate education. Our faculty are actively engaged in addressing the most pressing global issues of our time. Half of them come from countries outside the United States; all are experts at bringing the world into the classroom. As students prepare to graduate, they find our faculty members are also their connection to a world of opportunity.
