Hamilton Lugar School faculty come from a range of backgrounds and engage in a wide spectrum of research.
They are scholars on human rights, security, public health, climate change, and area studies. They are linguists, military veterans, historians, and sociologists. They are former humanitarian aid workers, diplomats, and nonprofit leaders.
But above all else, our faculty members are thinkers, doers, mentors, and teachers.
