Overview The joint Duke -UNC Rotary Center for International Studies takes advantage of the best faculty, courses, resources and technology that each university offers. Duke University and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill are located within 10 miles of one another, and both border the Research Triangle Park, home to internationally renowned research facilities and corporations. The area has been ranked as one of the best places in America for living, working and for education by a number of national publications. UNC ranks as one of the country’s top four public institutions in research, teaching and public service. Established in 1793, it was the first public university in the United States.
Duke University is a major center for learning and research, and has consistently ranked among the top 10 colleges and universities in the United States in recent years. Fellows selected to study at the Duke-UNC Rotary Center will enroll either at Duke's Program in International Development Policy (PIDP), or in UNC master's programs under various relevant departments.
