Bush School of Government and Public Service

The Bush School of Government and Public Service is an undergraduate and graduate college of Texas A&M University founded in 1997 under former US President George H. W. Bush's philosophy that "public service is a noble calling."^[1] Since then, the Bush School has continued to reflect that notion in curriculum, research, and student experience and has become a leading international affairs, political science, and public affairs institution.

The Robertson Foundation selected the Bush School for the prestigious Robertson Fellowship Scholarship, a full-ride scholarship for students dedicated to government service.^[2]

The Bush School is located in the Robert H. '50 and Judy Ley Allen Building adjacent to the George Bush Presidential Library on the West Campus of Texas A&M University. The George Bush Presidential Library was established in 1997 on 90 acres (36 ha; 0.14 sq mi) of land donated by Texas A&M at the western edge of the campus. At that time, the Bush School was established to coincide with the opening of the library. While the School was officially launched in 1997, it became an independent college within the university in 2000.^[3] In January 2021, The Bush School DC started inaugural classes in Washington DC with students enrolled in the Master of International Policy Program. Classes at this campus are led by scholars and seasoned practitioners from federal agencies. As one of the most impactful and nationally influential academic units at Texas A&M, the Bush School significantly expanded in the fall of 2022, with the addition of both the Department of Political Science and the International Studies program. The major initiative includes the additions of both undergraduate and Ph.D. programs to the Bush School, providing an excellent opportunity to broaden the academic reach of the school.

The Bush School was named in honor of former US President George H. W. Bush. He was involved in providing direction in the organization by helping bring noted professors and other individuals from the public and private sec to the campus. Visitors have included Ban Ki-moon, Mikhail Gorbachev, Ted Kennedy, Barack Obama, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Helmut Kohl, Peter Orszag, Mitt Romney, Mike Krzyzewski, Dick Cheney, Colin Powell, Condoleezza Rice, Karl Rove, Andrew Card, Dan Quayle, Antonin Scalia, Ryan Crocker, Michael Mullen, Sean Hannity, Jeb Bush, and Jiang Zemin.^[4]

ISTPP's policy research aims to identify the public and stakeholders' acceptability parameters for science and technology applications. ISTPP also provides interdisciplinary research experience for doctoral, master's, and undergraduate students to augment their training as future decision and policy-makers and university faculty. Graduate students may also work with scholars as coauthors on manuscripts for publication in peer-reviewed journals. The current director of the ISTPP is Arnold Vedlitz.^[27]
