International & Comparative Law Faculty

In addition to being first-rate professors and scholars, GW Law faculty are at the forefront of shaping and implementing international law. Our faculty and deans have presided over the American Society of International Law, served as Commissioners and Judges of International Commissions and Courts, and led important processes at the State Department, United Nations, the Organization of American States, and other international organizations. Important values such as inclusion, human dignity, and social service guide our teaching.
