With students and faculty representing more than 60 countries, Webster University’s Vienna campus offers a diverse forum for examining and understanding the complexities and processes involved in the relationships among institutions of international governance.

Vienna’s location at the crossroads of east and west will expose you to a variety of political cultures, helping you understand the differences in government systems across cultures and nations. In addition, faculty will lead visits to international organizations such as the United Nations, NATO, and OPEC.

Located along the banks of the Danube River, the Vienna campus has computer labs with Mac and PC workstations, a library with online access to Webster’s main library in St. Louis, plus conference facilities, an art gallery, bookstore, student lounge, and American-style restaurant. The campus is served by public transportation and is only 20 minutes from the city’s center.

"Observing OSCE meetings during the Russian–Georgian conflict of 2008 helped to expose me to the high intensity reality that every state faces. New experiences, friends, amazing memories, professional contacts and a rounder worldview are things that only the Global MA program can deliver."
