The Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies's Mission Statement

The Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies is a result of the merger of the Graduate Institute of International Studies (HEI) and the Graduate Institute of Development Studies (IUED), created respectively in 1927 and 1961. It is an institution dedicated to providing students from all over the world the means to undertake international studies, from a historical, legal, economic, political and social perspective. It owes its reputation to the quality of its cosmopolitan faculty; the selection of its students; the strength and the relevance of its study programmes involving four core disciplines (economics, history, law and political science); its policy-relevant approach to international affairs; and its bilingual English-French education. The Institute's location in Geneva, Switzerland, provides students with unique access and exposure to the many international and intergovernmental institutions making their home in the city. The curriculum's multidisciplinary approach makes HEID an ideal place for students interested in international affairs and development studies.
