Established in 1993, the University of Michigan International Institute (II) stimulates research and teaching on critical areas of the world and on international issues that cut across world regions and disciplines. Since its launch, the II has developed and supported international teaching, research, and public affairs programming that helps students and faculty see the world through a global lens.
The II now offers the Masters in International and Regional Studies (MIRS) which provides students with the comparative perspective and analytical tools necessary to both understand and address issues and challenges that traverse the globe. MIRS combines an interdisciplinary curriculum, deep regional/thematic expertise, rigorous methodological training, and international experiences to enable students to situate these issues in their cultural, historical, geographical, political, and socioeconomic contexts.
