About NJIA

Founded in 1997, the Northwestern Journal of International Affairs (NJIA) is an endowed, undergraduate research journal that seeks to expand knowledge and raise awareness of contemporary topics in international affairs through publishing and campus programming. The Journal publishes exceptional articles, papers and theses submitted by scholars, experts, and students of relevant disciplines for an international audience.

In addition to publishing high quality content in print, the NJIA seeks to expand content online to include editorial blogs and long form journalistic content to stay abreast of current international events. We hope to be an influential source on current events analysis as well as academic research.
