"MSFS offers that necessary combination of knowledge development and preparation for action, the development of relevant capabilities in leadership, mediation, and negotiations for example. It brings together a very diverse group of faculty and students, which makes it a more enriching experience. Its location in Washington, D.C. is another plus."
