ABOUT THE PATTERSON SCHOOLThe vision to create a school of diplomacy and international commerce came from Dr. James Kennedy Patterson, the first president of the University of Kentucky. Long an advocate for greater American engagement with the world, Patterson saw the 1898 Spanish-American War as evidence that a new school was needed that shall have for its special object the preparation of young men for the diplomatic and consular service of the United States. It shall also provide special training for those who may seek employment in extending upon rational and scientific lines the commercial relations of America. Patterson took as his model the programs then being established in Europe and at Harvard, Chicago, Georgetown and Yale.The Patterson School of Diplomacy and International Commerce provides an exceptional masters degree program that prepares future leaders for rewarding careers in international affairs. The professional masters program offers concentrations/majors in four areas: diplomacy; international commerce; international organizations and development; international security and intelligence.The Patterson School program is focused and flexible.
