Program Description:

THE AMERICAN COLLEGE OF THE MEDITERRANEAN

The American College of the Mediterranean (ACM) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Institute for American Universities (IAU), an independent, free-standing institution founded in 1957 by academics and former diplomats such as Dr. Herbert Maza (who also served as its first President), Dr. Evron Kirkpatrick, Ambassadors Jeane Kirkpatrick, Dr. Max Kampelman, and others who wanted to provide a platform for American students interested in studying diplomatic relations with related interests and careers in the Foreign Service and the State Department. 

The mission of the American College of the Mediterranean is to provide excellence in international education, inspire intercultural awareness, and prepare students for success in a global community through the study of European and Mediterranean history, languages, cultures, and contemporary issues. It does so through a unique combination of courses, internships, curricula, that combine to create American-style undergraduate and graduate degree programs in an international and cross-cultural setting. 
 
UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
 
The majors and minors at The American College of the Mediterranean reflect the site-specificity of our campus in Southern France and the Mediterranean, and build upon ACM's academic tradition as a leader in international education. ACM offers six different bachelor's programs, as well as the option to self-design a field of study from a wide range of course offerings. ACM's flexible and individualized curriculum allows students to design their own major, in conversation with their academic advisor, to fit individual academic interests.
