Walsh School of Foreign Service and offers a four-year undergraduate curriculum leading to the Bachelor of Science in Foreign Service (BSFS) degree identical to that offered on the Main Campus of Georgetown University in Washington, DC. Each year, the SFS-Qatar admits a class of approximately 50 students, primarily from the Middle East, South and Southeast Asia, who take courses on and will graduate from the Doha campus. The students and facilities of the SFS-Qatar are outstanding. Compensation, terms of employment and professional opportunities for SFS-Qatar faculty are highly competitive. SFS-Qatar faculty join a community of scholars in Education City who teach in the other branch campuses of Carnegie-Mellon University, Cornell University, Texas A&M University, and Virginia Commonwealth University. Compensation at all ranks is highly competitive.
