The Hubert H. Humphrey Institute of Public Affairs ranks among the top 15 professional schools of public affairs at public universities in the country. The Institute is widely recognized for its role in examining public issues and shaping public policy at the local, state, national, and international levels, and for providing leadership and management expertise to public and nonprofit organizations.

Recently, the Luce Foundation awarded the Humphrey Institute $360,000 for a three-year program on the theme of humanitarianism, religion and world order. This project will extend the work of the Sawyer Seminar and will support internships for graduate students, visiting speakers, a summer training institute for graduate students and a series of conferences from 2007 to 2010. In addition, it will create a consortium with the University of Toronto's Munk Center and the American University in Cairo's Forced Migration and Refugee Studies Center.
