PROTECT THE FUTURE AND POSITION YOURSELF FOR SUCCESS

The United States Department of State is the Cabinet-level foreign affairs agency of the United States government. Administered by the Secretary of State, the Department of State finds residence a few blocks from the White House in Washington, D.C. The State Department focuses primarily on the implementation of a wide range of foreign policies as set forth by the President of the United States. Although they employ nearly 25,000 people, Department of State jobs are extremely prestigious and competitive by nature – you are a U.S. government representative at all times.

Department of State jobs can give you the broad international exposure you need to reach your ultimate career goals in the public and foreign policy establishment. Ranging from serving as a career diplomat (also known as a Foreign Service Officer) abroad to countering international crime, implementing foreign military training initiatives, countering narcotics/human trafficking or international law enforcement, Department of State jobs cannot be matched.

Department of State jobs require the ability to analyze and effectively report on political, economic and social trends in countries around the world in support of policymakers at the highest levels of Government. Most Foreign Service employees possess at least a Bachelor’s degree and more than three-quarters have an advanced degree in a career-related field.

If you are ready to open the door to a whole new world of career opportunities, a highly-specialized degree at Henley-Putnam is your first step. Offering accredited Bachelor's and Master's Degree programs in the three key areas of Intelligence Management, Terrorism/Counterterrorism and Protection, as well as a Doctorate Degree program in Strategic Security, our targeted curriculum meet the rigorous demands of the State Department. Your unique degree from Henley-Putnam University will set you on the path to success.
