The premier student-run foreign policy think tank at the University of Michigan.
Founded in 2016, the Michigan Foreign Policy Council is the premier student-run foreign policy think tank at the University of Michigan. We aim to cultivate the world’s next foreign policy leaders through our unwavering commitment to teaching non-partisan foreign policy research and foster productive debate on the issues of today. Members learn the empirical social science research process in their first semester and produce an original research paper or policy proposal each semester. Veteran members can elect to produce snapshots every few weeks, which conduct a detailed dive into complex foreign policy issues in shortform and can be found in our Briefing Room. MFPC strives to equip its members with the tools to build a successful career in any industry – not just foreign policy – and the professional development opportunities and social network to pursue them.
In addition to publishing our semesterly journal, we have a team of Senior Research Analysts who more frequently post 'Snapshots' of current political and foreign policy updates from around the world.
MFPC publishes semesterly journals that are compiled from all of our research groups' papers in addition to policy proposals.
Policy proposals are positions given to more experienced research analysts. Individuals are given the chance to pick a policy issue of their choice and create a formal potential solution to the problem over a semester.
