Letter  from  the  Director  It  is  my  pleasure  to  present  the  2013-­‐2014  Annual  Report  of  the  BMW  Center  for  German  and   European   Studies   of   the   Edmund   A.   Walsh   School   of   Foreign   Service,   Georgetown  University.  The  full  range  of  Center  programs,  activities,  and  ambitions  is  on  display  in  the  pages   that   follow   –   in   every  way,   the  BMW  Center   continues   to   serve   as  a   focal   point   at  Georgetown   University   and   in   Washington,   D.C.   for   vibrant   and   sustained   research,  learning,   and   dialogue   on   Europe.   Our   students,   alumni,   faculty,   staff,   and   visitors   all  contributed  to  this  wonderful  accomplishment.      2013-­‐2014  was  another  banner  year  for  the   faculty  and  the  staff.  Professor  Anna  von  der  Goltz   was   promoted   to   Associate   Professor   with   tenure.   Professor   Abraham   Newman,  MAGES   Director,   and   Julia   Sylla,   Supervisor   of   Academic   Programs,   continued   their  excellent   partnership,  with   special   emphasis   on   career  planning  and   recruiting.  Assistant  Director  Christina  Ruby  and  program  assistant  Tyler  Lopez   implemented  a   flurry   of  new  administrative   and   financial   reporting   systems   introduced   by   the   University   without   a  hitch,   keeping   the   Center   on   a   comfortable,   even   keel.   Phoebe   Wood,   our   Events   and  Publications  Coordinator,  organized  a  year-­‐long  program  of  50   lectures,  roundtables,  and  conferences  that  once  again  set  the  benchmark  for  event  programming  at  Georgetown.  We  have  a  fantastic  team  in  place  here  on  the  fifth  floor  of  the  Intercultural  Center.      Finally,  I’m  pleased  to  announce  that  in  April  2014,  the  BMW  Center  finalized  a  $1.3  million  bequest  from  the  estate  of  Michael  Cohnitz  Olshausen,  a  long-­‐time  friend  of  the  Center  who  passed   away   in   2012.   The   gift   will   support   event   programming   on   Europe,   under   the  auspices  of  the  Michael  C.  Olshausen  Lecture  Fund.      As  the  BMW  Center  approaches  its  twenty-­‐fifth  anniversary  year,  we  take  great  pride  in  our  past   accomplishments,   and   we   eagerly   anticipate   the   achievements   that   are   to   come.  Without   the   generous   support   of   the   German   government   and   the   German   Academic  Exchange  Service  (DAAD)  during  the  first  ten  years  of  the  Center’s  existence,  and  the  BMW  Group  over  the  past  14  years,  none  of  this  would  be  have  been  possible.      Sincerely  yours,  

 Jeffrey  J.  Anderson  Graf  Goltz  Professor  and  Director  BMW  Center  for  German  and  European  Studies

The  BMW  Center  for  German  and  European  Studies  thanks  our  generous  partners  who  have  contributed  to   our   continued   strength   and   growth   as   the  premier  center  of  its  kind  in  North  America.        BMW    BMW’s   endowed   gift   provided   the   foundation   that  supports  a  strong,  successful  center  in  which  faculty  have  ample  resources  to  conduct  their  research,  the  center   leadership   is   able   to   organize   an   ambitious  events   program   to   draw   pre-­‐eminent   scholars,  policymakers   and   dignitaries,   and  most   important,  students   have   the   necessary   financial   support   to  pursue   their   educational   and   professional   goals.    86%   of   students   at   the   BMW   Center   receive  scholarship   funds,   and   in   some   cases  were   able   to  attend  only  because  of  this  scholarship  support.        As   we   draw   closer   to   the   25th   Anniversary   of   the  BMW   Center,   not   only   are   we   grateful   for   BMW’s  continued   support   and   partnership   over   the   last  decade,   but   we   are   also   excited   about   new  opportunities  for  collaboration.  This  year,  the  BMW  Group   created   a   government   affairs   summer  internship  for  our  students  in  Washington,  D.C.,  and  BMW   continued   their   successful   signature  internship   program   for   the   third   year   at   BMW  headquarters  in  Munich  as  they  produced  the  world  launch  of  the  BMW  i3  electric  car  in  China.

Finally,   we   were   happy   to   support   BMW’s   global  sustainability   strategy   by  hosting   a   group   dialogue  at   Riggs  Library   this  past  May.   Senior   BMW  Group  leaders,   Georgetown   students,   and   Georgetown  alumni   participated   in   a   lively   discussion   on  “Electromobility,   Mobility   Services,   and  Sustainability  Leadership”.        German  Academic  Exchange  Service  (DAAD)    In  1990,  the  year  CGES  was  founded  as  one  of  three  US-­‐based   “Centers   of   Excellence”   by   the   German  Government,  we  joined  a  growing  network  of  DAAD  North  American  academic   centers.  The  partnership  between  the  Center  and  the  DAAD  has  strengthened  and   deepened   over   the   years.   In   2013,   the   BMW  Center   received   funding   under   the   DAAD’s    “Promoting   German   and   European   Studies”  program,   which   supported   the   following   activities  in  2013-­‐2014:    § Conference  convened  by  Jeffrey  Anderson  and  

Eric   Langenbacher   on   “Exploring   the   Rise   of  German   Power   in   the   Post-­‐Cold   War   Era”   in  December   2013,   with   a   follow-­‐up   roundtable  in  Berlin  June  2014;  

 § Financial   support   for   two   short-­‐term   visiting  

researchers:  Justus  Dreyling  (Freie  Universität  Berlin)   and   Matus   Lohaus   (Berlin   Graduate  School   for   Transnational   Studies,   Free  University)   (see   Attachment   G   in   the  Appendix);  

 § Transatlantic   Policy   Symposium,   Graduate  

Student   Conference   on   “Hot   Wars   &   Cold  Wars:  Europe’s  Near  Abroad”;

"Coursework  in  International  Business  Diplomacy  strengthened  my  understanding  of  the  stakeholder  interactions  in  business-­‐government  negotiations,  while  regional  expertise  acquired   at   the   BMW   Center   allowed   me   to   see   a   greater   picture   behind   each  transaction  and  project.  In  summer  2013,  I  came  back  to  Kiev  as  an  intern  at  the  Global  Subsidiaries   Group   at   Citi   Ukraine,   where   I   conducted   a   detailed   research   on  macroeconomic   dynamics   prevalent   in   Eastern   Europe   and   political   economy   of  Ukraine.  My  Georgetown  education  allowed  me  to  feel  on  par  while  interacting  

with  the  senior  management  of  the  bank  and  its  international  clients.    Today,  as  a  young  professional  in  the  field  of  global  development,  I  feel  confident  in  my  ability  to  analyze,  present,  and  communicate  current  political  and  socio-­‐economic  dynamics  in  Europe  in  order  to  better  design  development  programs  in  the  region.  I  feel  empowered  to  make  a  change  as  a  professional  and  a  citizen  through  the   knowledge   gained   at   the   BMW   Center   and   the   School   of   Foreign   Service,   through   the  connections  I  established  and  the   ideas   I  have  been  exposed  to.   I  hope  that  my  current  work  in  monitoring  and  evaluation  of  development  projects  with  Social  Impact  will  help  me  to  empower  other  women  and  men  around  the  world."

“Interning   with   the   BMW   Group   has   given   me   an   amazing   opportunity   to   experience  firsthand  the  inner  workings  of  a  major  international  company.  From  the  outset,  I  have  been   treated   as   a   full-­‐fledged   team   member,   learning   about   everything   from  corporate   identity   and  messaging   to   regulatory   and   trade   issues.   The   projects   I   am  working   on   are   both   fascinating   and   incredibly   pertinent   to   my   field   of   study   and  professional   aspirations.   The   experience   I   am   gaining   with   the   BMW   Group   is   truly  

invaluable  and  will  certainly  remain  a  milestone  on  my  career  path.”    Kelsey  Bensch  United  States  MAGES  Class  of  2015  BMW  Washington,  D.C.  Internship  

"During   the   summer   of   2013,   I   had   the   opportunity   to   intern   with   the   BMW  Group   in  Munich,   as   part   of   a   BMW   Center   for   German   and   European   Studies   Signature  Internship.  I  was  placed   in  the  Corporate  Communications  department  and  worked  on  over   thirty   speeches   and   presentations   for   delivery   by   Board   Members   and   other  executives.  The   support   and  mentoring   that   I  received  during  those  twelve  weeks  was   overwhelming.   The   high   point   of   my   BMW   Group   experience   was   traveling   to  Beijing,  China  for  the  World  Premier  of  the  BMW  i3  to  assist  the  speechwriter  on  location.  

I   cannot   thank  the  BMW  Group  enough  for  my  2013  internship  and  the  experience  of  working  in  such  a  welcoming  environment."    Amy  Soderquist  United  States  MAGES  Class  of  2014  BMW  Munich,  Germany  Internship

 § An   interdisciplinary   conference  with   lectures,  

roundtables,   public   screenings,   and  performances  on  “Performing  Blackness  in  the  Transatlantic   World:   Germany,   Race,  Intermediality”,  convened  by  Katrin  Sieg.  (See  Attachment   E   in   the   Appendix   for   the   full  program).  

 The  BMW  Center  for  German  and  European  Studies  continues   to   collaborate  with   the  DAAD   to   co-­‐fund  Professor  Asiye   Kaya   for   a   five-­‐year  DAAD   visiting  professorship  (Gastdozentur)  through  spring  2015.  CGES   faculty   and   students   have   appreciated   the  opportunity   to  have   an   additional   faculty   resource  within   CGES,   and   we   look   forward   to   future  collaborations   with   the   DAAD   to   bring   another  visiting   professor   to   the   Center   after   Prof.   Kaya’s  appointment  concludes  in  2014-­‐2015.        

“Dr.   Kaya   is   a   thoughtful,   insightful,   and  engaging   professor.   Her   course   was  incredibly   dynamic   and   allowed   students  to   grapple   with   a   variety   of   diverse   but  connected   concepts.   She   is   also   one   of   the  most   supportive   professors   I   have  encountered.   She   advised   a   large-­‐scale  research   project   of   mine   and   was   an  invaluable  resource.  She  not  only  provided  constructive  feedback  and  guidance  on  the  scope   and   depth   of   my   research   but   also  challenged   me   to   deeply   understand   the  social  and  political  structures  at  play  in  my  research.   Her   unwavering   support   and  dedication   to   helping   students   achieve  their  academic  potential  is  astounding.  “    Rukmani  Bhatia  MAGES  Class  2015  

 American  Consortium  on  European  Union  Studies    The   BMW   Center   is   a   member   of   the   American  Consortium  on  European  Union  Studies   (ACES),   an  EU-­‐sponsored   network   of   area   universities  involved   in   research   and   outreach   relating   to  European   integration   and   transatlantic   relations.  The  BMW  Center  participates   in  ACES  by   including  it   as   a   co-­‐sponsor   in   many   events   relating   to   the  European   Union.   ACES   provided   support   for   the  annual   graduate   student   conference.   ACES   also  conferred   a   Certificate   in   European   Union   Studies  to   the   18   graduating   MAGES   students  in   2014   for  successfully   completing   15   credits   of   EU-­‐relevant  course  work.

Alumni  Networking  

1

The   CGES   Alumni   Association   (CGESAA)   continues  to  play  an  active  role  in  and  on  behalf  of  the  Center.  Alumni  planned  a  variety  of  events   throughout  the  2013-­‐2014   academic   year   to   support   students’  professional   development.   CGESAA   also   convened  regularly,   held   social   events   to   bring   alumni  together,   and   provided   support   for   the   Graduate  Student  Conference.    CGESAA   members   attended   the   MAGES   Final  Colloquium  in  April  2014,  at  which  the  second-­‐year  students   presented   their  MAGES   projects.   CGESAA  is   responsible   for  giving  out  the   Jill  Hopper  Award  at   the   Colloquium   each   year.   The   Alumni  Association’s   president,   Zachary   Wynne,  coordinated  the  Hopper  Award  process.  Created   in  1999  to  honor  the  memory  of  Jill  Alexandra  Hopper  (Class   of   1996),   the   Hopper   Award   recognizes  dedication   to   academic   service   and   scholarship.  Second-­‐year   MAGES   students   are   selected   via   a  two-­‐tiered   process   of   peer   nomination.   The   2014  Jill  Hopper  Award  recipient  was  Emily  Sieg,  whose  project   was   entitled   “Multi-­‐level   Electoral  Campaigning   in  the  European  Union:  How  Far  Right  Parties   Compete   in   Local,   National   and  Supranational  Elections.”

Alumni  Outreach    The  CGES  campaign   to   reach  out   and   connect  with  our   alumni   near   and   far   continued   this   year.   The  Center   hosted   alumni   events   in   Washington,   D.C.  and   in   Berlin,   Germany   in   May   and   June   2014.  Approximately  30  MAGES  alumni  attended  the  D.C.  Alumni  event  at  Bluejacket  Brewery  on  May  22.  The  event   included  a  tour  of   the  brewery  followed  by  a  tasting   of   the   brewery’s   original   beers   and   a  reception  hosted  by  Center  Director  Jeff  Anderson.    In  June,  the  Center  headed  back  to  Berlin  for  a  very  successful  program  of  events.  The  Center  partnered  with   the  Hertie   School   of   Governance   to   present   a  panel   focused  on  Careers   in  Europe,   featuring   four  MAGES  and  Hertie  School   alumni,   to   a   group  of  30  American   and   European   interns   based   in   Berlin.    The   discussion   was   extremely   informative,  engaging,   and   interactive   as   the   interns   took   the  opportunity   to   ask   about   career   paths,   degree  opportunities,  and  other  areas  of  advice.  The  Center  then  co-­‐hosted  a  reception  with  Cultural  Vistas  and  the  German  Academic  Exchange  Service   (DAAD)  at  the  Allianz  Forum  on  the  Pariser  Platz  for  nearly  50  alumni  from  all  of  the  programs.  It  was  a  wonderful  opportunity  not  only  to  reconnect  with  the  Center’s  partners   in   Berlin,   but   also   for   our   students   and  

alumni   to   connect   with   others   in   the  transatlantic   relations   field.   Finally,   the  Center   could   not   depart   Berlin   without  watching   a   World   Cup   match!   The   Center  invited   current   and   past   MAGI   to   the  historic   Prater   beer   garden   to   watch   the  match  between  Colombia  and  Greece.    Hopper  Award  recipient  Emily  Sieg  (center  right)  with  CGESAA   board   member   Hanne   Bursch,   award  nominees   Stephanie   Shoemaker   and   Jacqueline  Viselli,   Professor   Jeff  Anderson,   and  CGESAA  board  member  Nili  Yossinger.

MAGES  Admissions  Overview  2014    MAGES   representatives   attended   several   graduate  school   fairs   held   in   Washington,   D.C.,   Boston,   and  New   York   City   last   fall,   organized   either   by   the  Association  of  Professional  Schools   in  International  Affairs   (APSIA)   or   Idealist.  We   also   participated   in  the   European   Studies   fair   sponsored   by   European  Voice   in  Brussels,  Belgium  on  February  7th  and  8th,  2014.   Two   MAGES   alumni   who   were   working   in  Brussels,   Leila   Stehlik-­‐Barry   (MAGES   2011)   and  Rachel   Kimmel   (MAGES   2013),   represented   CGES  and  spoke  to  many  interested  prospective  students  from   around   Europe  who  attended  the  fair.      From  March  14th   -­‐16th,  CGES   participated   in  the   Council   for  European   Studies  annual   conference   in  Washington,   DC.   In  addition   to   staffing   a  table   with   CGES  materials  and  speaking  with  numerous   faculty  who   were   attending  the   conference,   we  also   put   together   a  panel   for   young   CES  fellows   that   featured  two   MAGES   alumni  who   went   on   to  complete   PhDs   after  their   MA   degrees   and   who  work   at   think-­‐tanks   in  the   Washington,   DC   area,   Peter   Engelke   (MAGES  2005)  and  Steven  Watts  (MAGES  1998).  The  School  of   Foreign   Service   supported   advertisements   in  magazines   and   other   print   publications   such   as  Foreign  Policy.  In  addition,  many  candidates  visited  the  BMW  Center  throughout  the  summer  and  fall  to  learn  about  the  MAGES  program  in  person,  sit  in  on  classes,  and  meet  with  current  students.      CGES   continued   to   utilize   online   platforms   for  recruitment   by   participating   in   webinars   for  

2

prospective   students,   sending   HTML   emails   to  prospective  students,  and  developing  a  presentation  on   all   eight   SFS   degree   programs   that   can   be  digitally   displayed   during   admissions   fairs.  Additionally,  the  new  MAGES  website  was  launched  with  updated  pages  for  Admissions  and  Academics.,  Twitter  was   integrated   into  our  recruitment  efforts  and  the  Center  began  a  weekly  post  on   the  MAGES  program   that   included   the   hashtag  “#MAGESMondays.”    The   MAGES   program   received   45   applications   for  fall   2014   admission.   The   Admissions   Committee  

admitted   35   of   those  candidates   and   waitlisted  four  applicants.  22  students  enrolled  for  fall  2014.      Applicants   to   the   MAGES  program  applied  to  over  20  other  schools  and  programs.  Among   those   other  programs,   our   biggest  competitors   were   George  Washington   University’s  Elliot   School   of  International   Affairs,   Johns  Hopkins  University’s   School  of   Advanced   International  Studies   (SAIS),   and  American   University’s  School   of   International  Service   (SIS).   Applicants  also   considered   Columbia

Professional  Development

Events      The   MAGES   program   integrates   professional  development   into   the   academic   experience  throughout  the  two  years  of  the  program.  CGES  also  organizes  events  for  each  class  to  help  them  stay  on  track   with   their   professional   development,   and  brings   in   alumni   and   other   professionals   to  network  and  to  speak  on  panels  about  their  careers  and  ways  for  MAGES  students  to  successfully  enter  the   professional   marketplace.   Each   fall,   CGES  sponsors  an  annual   Speed  Networking  evening   for  the   current   students   to   meet   MAGES   alumni   and  learn  about  career  opportunities  in  the  Washington,  D.C.  area.  Additionally,  there  are  several  customized  events  for  each  class.  First-­‐year  students  learn  how  to  craft   their   career  narratives  with  the  director  of  the   Graduate   Career   Services   Office   during  "Okupational   Oktoberfest."   Second-­‐year   students  discuss   job   search   strategies   during   a   "Job   Search  101"   session.   Finally,   students   support   each   other  during   the   internship   and   job   search   process.  Second-­‐year   students   share   their   summer  internship  experiences  with   the   incoming   students  during   the   annual   "How   I   Spent   My   Summer  Vacation"   event.     CGES   also   hosted   several  information   sessions   on   prestigious   fellowship  opportunities  such  as  the  Bosch  Fellowship  and  the  German   Chancellor   Fellowship,   as   well   as   an  information  session  on  options  for  pursuing  a  PhD.        Internships    MAGES  students  are  encouraged  to  hold  internships  while  at  Georgetown,  especially  during  the  summer  between   their   first   and   second   years   of   study.   In  2013-­‐2014,   MAGES   students   held   internships   in  Washington,   D.C.   and   abroad.   In   the   summer   of  2014,  52%  of  MAGES   students   interned  outside   of  the   United   States   in   Germany,   Poland,   and   China,  and  48%  of   students   interned   in   the  United  States  in   Washington,   DC   or   Atlanta,   Georgia.   CGES   is  grateful   to   the   SFS   Dean’s   Office   for   supplemental  financial   support   for   MAGES   students’   summer  internships,   which   are   funded   primarily   through  the  BMW  Center’s  Flynn  Summer  Grant  program.

In  conjunction  with  select  employers,  CGES  runs  the  MAGES   Signature   Internship   Program,  which   gives  us   an   opportunity   to   strengthen   partnerships  within   the   transatlantic   community   in  Washington,  D.C.   and   give   our   students   the   best   internship  experiences  possible.  The  program  aims  to  provide  employers   with   high   quality   and   reliable   graduate  student   interns  whenever  they  are  needed.   In  turn,  employers   agree   to   give   interns   a   valuable  experience   to   enrich   their   professional   and  academic   development.   The   MAGES   Signature  Internship   Program   employers   this   year   included  BMW  AG,  UNESCO-­‐IIEP,   and   the  Bank  of  New  York  Mellon,  Frankfurt.      In   addition   to   our   Signature   Internship   Program,  students   intern   at   a   wide   variety   of   other  organizations  to  complement  their  academic  studies  and   professional   goals.   Below   is   a   sample   of   other  organizations   where   MAGES   students   interned   in  2013-­‐2014:    American   Friends   of   the   Alexander   von   Humboldt  Foundation  Banyan  Global  Bertelsmann  Foundation  CNN  International  Deutsche  Welle    Overseas  Private  Investment  Corporation  (OPIC)  Social  Impact  United  States  Department  of  Commerce    United  States  Agency  for  International  Development  United  States  Department  of  State

MEET  RUKMANI  BHATIA    

"I   had   the   opportunity   to   participate   in   two  summer   programs.   I   served   as   an   intern   for   the  Human   Rights   Department   within   Vital   Voices  Global  Partnerships.      Vital   Voices   is   a   non-­‐profit   organization   focused  on  identifying,  investing  in,  and  bringing  visibility  to   extraordinary   women   around   the   world.   The  three   main   goals   of   Vital   Voices   are   to   mentor  emerging  women  leaders,  equip  women  with  the  skills  to  become  agents  of  change,  and  work  with  them  to  end  violence  against  women  worldwide.  Within   the   human   rights   team,   I   mainly   focused  on   the   issue   of   human   trafficking   and   sexual  

assault.   I   created  all   of   the  news   research   for   the  department  during  my   internship,   constantly   following  up  on  ongoing  news   stories  or  providing   the   team  with  new   information  about   rape,   trafficking  or  domestic   violence  cases  that  related  to  one  of  Vital  Voices  past  programs  or  a  Vital  Voices  woman.      The   majority   of   my   internship   was   spent   in   helping   the   team   organize   and   coordinate   the   first   ever   Global  Freedom  Exchange  program,  sponsored  by  Hilton  Worldwide.  This  program  brought  26  emerging  women  leaders  from  13  different  countries  to  the  USA.  They  all  work  to  combat  child  sex  trafficking  and  thus,  came  to  the  US  and  visited  DC,  NYC  and  Dallas,   attending  meetings  with  NGOs  and  governmental  organizations   to   learn  what   the  best  practices  are  in  the  US  and  how  they  can  implement  similar  programs  in  their  own  countries.  My  role  was  to  conduct  a  great  deal  of  administrative  work,  including  creating  all  the  distribution  materials   for  the  participants  that  ranged  from  information  about  the  cities  they  were  visiting  to  writing  summaries  of  the  US  laws  against  child  trafficking   to   providing   them   with   debriefing   information   for   the   various   meetings   they   would   be   attending.  Additionally,  after  the  program  was  completed  at  the  end  of  June,  I  created  the  post-­‐program  survey  to  be  sent  to  all  participants  to  determine  whether  the  program  achieved  its  targeted  goals  and  what  changes  should  be  made  in   the   future.   The   post-­‐program   survey   also   addressed   the   impact   the   Global   Freedom   Exchange   had   on   the  participants   with   regards   to   their  work   in   their   organizations.   Finally,   the   last  major   project   for  my   internship  involved   interviewing  a  participant  from  the  Global  Freedom  Exchange  from  Mumbai,  India.  Her  work   is  unique  from  the  other  participants,  in  that  she  addresses  the  inter-­‐generational  cycle  of  sex  workers  in  brothels.  I  created  questions  for  her,  which  she  answered,  and  then  I  wrote  a  narrative  about  her  work  and  her  organization.  This  will  be  posted  on  the  Vital  Voices  website  soon  under  the  “Featured  Voices”  section.    My   summer   experience   with   Vital   Voices   strengthened   me   academically,   professionally,   and   personally.   I  expanded  my   professional   skills   through  my   tasks  at   Vital  Voices.  My  understanding   of   trafficking  has  evolved  tremendously  and  my  passion  for  studying  the  reconciliation  process  within  South  East  Europe  has  intensified.  It  would  not  have  been  possible  for  me  to  participate  in  both  of  these  experiences  without  the  summer  grant."    Rukmani   graduated   from   the   MAGES   program   in   2014   and   was   selected   as   the   first   Hillary   Rodham   Clinton  Research  Fellow  for  the  Georgetown  Institute  for  Women,  Peace  and  Security.    Rukmani  Bhatia  M.A.  Candidate,  German  and  European  Studies,  2014  Edmund  A.  Walsh  School  of  Foreign  Service,  Georgetown  University  Summer  2013  Internship:  Vital  Voices/International  Summer  School  Sarajevo  Location:  Washington,  DC/Sarajevo,  Bosnia  and  Herzegovina

MEET  JAKUB  HLAVKA    "This   summer,   I   had   the   opportunity   to  work   both   for   the   Czech  Ministry   of   Finance   in   Prague   and   RAND   Corporation   in  Cambridge,   UK.   Both   work   experiences   had   a   common  denominator   –   European   and   transatlantic   affairs   –   and   I   used  them   to   deepen   my   knowledge   of   several   different   areas:  regulation  of  financial  markets,  international  financial  institutions,  defense  procurement  and  cyber  security.  Through  both  positions,  I  honed  my   skills   and   analytical   thinking   as  well   as  met   successful  people   from   different   industries,   US   and   European   governments  and  international  institutions.  Overall,  both  opportunities  allowed  me   learn  about  many  different  career  paths   in  the  public,  private  and   non-­‐profit   sector,   travel   all   around   the   continent   and   gain  useful  insights  into  current  policy  debates  in  Europe.    While   working   for   the   Czech  Ministry   of   Finance,   I   assisted   the   Head   of   the   Financial   Markets   Unit.   This   role  included   researching   US   and   Luxembourgian   capital   markets   law   and   helping   transpose   the   Alternative  Investment  Fund  Managers  Directive   in  the  Czech   legal   system.   I  also  participated   in  briefings  on   the  proposed  Financial  Transactions  Tax  and  the  negotiations  of   an  updated   financial   instruments   law  (MiFID   II/MiFIR)   in   the  EU.   In  addition,   I  was  also  given  an  opportunity  to  spend  some  time   in  another  department  of  the  Ministry.  My  decision   to   learn   more   about   Czech   foreign   aid   provided   me   with   insights   into   our   bilateral   relations   with  developing   countries   in  Africa  and  Asia   and   I   had  a   chance   to   learn   first-­‐hand  about  Czech  participation   in   the  World  Bank  Group  from  its  representatives  and  top  ministry  officials.    My   internship   at   RAND  Europe   consisted   of  work   on   defense-­‐related   projects   commissioned   by   the   European  Defense  Agency  and  the  British  government.  Specifically,  I  contributed  to  comprehensive  reports  on  EU  exports  of  advanced  technologies  to  third  countries,  cyber  defense  in  Europe  and  R&D  investment  in  the  UK.  Throughout  my   internship   at   RAND,   I  worked   with   seasoned   researchers   on   tasks   including   quantitative   cost   estimates   of  proposed  policy  measures   that  would  make  European  companies  more   competitive   in  global  markets,  assisted  during   stakeholder  engagement  of  over   30   senior  officials   from  European  and  American  ministries  and   leading  defense  industry  companies,  assisted  during  multiple  client  meetings  and  participated  in  a  host  of  internal  RAND  expert  workshops.  My  analysis  of  15  terrorism  suspect   interviews   is  now  part  of  a  unique  study  RAND  Europe   is  undertaking  on  the  topic  of   internet  radicalization.   In  addition  to  working  from  Great  Britain,   I   also  spent  some  time   in   RAND   Europe’s   office   in   Brussels,   meeting   European   institutions   officials   and   joining   RAND’s   project  teams   in   the   cyber   security   realm.   In   sum,   an   internship   at   RAND   Europe   provided   me   with   abundant  opportunities  to  learn  in  depth  about  policy  analysis  and  various  project  methodologies  applied  in  the  consulting  industry  as  well  as  many  specific  issue  areas  in  the  field  of  defense  and  international  security.    My  summer  experiences  would  not  have  been  possible  without  a  generous  support  of  the  Walsh  School  of  Foreign  Service  and  the  BMW  Center  for  German  and  European  Studies.  Through  my  internships,  I  not  only  expanded  my  knowledge  of  specific  industries  and  international  issues,  but  also  deepened  my  interest  in  helping  improve  how  some  domains  of  our  societies  function  and  how  the  public  and  private  sectors  work  together  towards  ambitious  goals  in  areas  ranging  from  trade  and  capital  markets  regulation  to  security  and  defense  issues."    Jakub   graduated   from   the   MAGES   program   in   2014   and   will   be   starting   a   PhD   in   Public   Policy   at   the   Rand  Graduate  School  this  fall.    Jakub  Hlávka  M.A.  Candidate,  German  and  European  Studies,  2014  Edmund  A.  Walsh  School  of  Foreign  Service,  Georgetown  University  Summer  2013  Internship:  RAND  Europe  and  Ministry  of  Finance  of  the  Czech  Republic  Location:  Cambridge,  UK;  Brussels,  Belgium;  Prague,  Czech  Republic

Career  Services    The  BMW  Center  is  committed  to  assisting  students  in   various   aspects   of   their   job   search   prior   to  graduation.   Students   utilize   the   SFS   Career  Development  Center  for  career  guidance,  as  well  as  the  Supervisor  of  Academic  Programs   for   feedback  on   resumes,   cover   letters   and  mock   interviews.   In  2013-­‐14,   students   had   the   opportunity   to   attend  various   MAGES   and   SFS   career   events,   where  speakers   from   different   job   sectors   spoke   about  their   career   paths   and   gave   advice   to   students.  CGES  alumni  continue  to  provide  excellent  support  to  students  in  the  area  of  professional  development.    Career  Achievement    The   MAGES   program   graduated   18   students   in  2014.      Among   the   class   were   students   from   the   Czech  Republic,   Ukraine,   and   the   United   States.  Representing   the  diversity  of   the  MAGES   program,  students   in   this   class   pursued   a   wide   range   of

concentrations   from   “International   Business  Diplomacy”   to   “Transatlantic   Security.”   Students  entered  MAGES  with  an  average  of  two  years  of  work  experience,  and  most  of  them  had  worked  or  studied  in   Europe   prior   to   matriculation.   Although   it   is   no  longer  mandatory  for  students  to  test  in  the  German  language,   most   students   chose   German   as   one   of  their   two  MAGES   languages.   Students  also   tested   in  Czech,  French,   Italian,  Portuguese,  Russian,   Spanish,  and  Turkish.      The   MAGES   graduating   class   of   2014   has   already  experienced   success   finding   professional  employment   in  their  areas  of  interest,   including  one  graduate  who  will  be  entering  the  U.S.  Department  of  State   Foreign   Service   this   summer,   one   who   was  selected  as  the  first  Hillary  Rodham  Clinton  Research  Fellow   with   the   Georgetown   Institute   for   Women,  Peace   and   Security,   several   who   have   started  positions  with  top-­‐level  consulting  firms,  and  others  who   are   working   at   the   German   Marshall   Fund   or  other  non-­‐profit  organizations.

Advancement  Gregory  Flynn  Scholarship  Fund    In   2013-­‐2014,   for   the   first   time   in   its   history,   the  BMW  Center  launched  a  fund-­‐raising  drive  directed  at   alumni   and   friends   of   the   Center.   The   goal   is   to  endow   a   scholarship   fund   named   after   Gregory  Flynn,   one   of   the   founding   directors   of   the   Center  who   passed   away   tragically   and   unexpectedly   in  2003.  The  background  to  this  initiative  is  presented  in   the   letter   sent   to   MAGES   alumni   by   Center  Director  Jeffrey  Anderson  in  November  2013.    To  date,  the  fundraising  drive  has  resulted  in  almost  $7,000   in   contributions.   We   remain   committed   to  the   goal   of   endowing   the   Flynn   fund,   and   we   are  grateful   to   those   who   contributed   to   the   new  “culture  of  giving”  at  the  Center.    Olshausen  Gift    In  the  fall  of  2013,  Georgetown  University  finalized  a  $1.3  million  bequest  to  the  BMW  Center  from  the  estate   of   Michael   Cohnitz   Olshausen,   a   long-­‐time  friend  of   the  Center  who  passed  away  in  2012.  The  gift  will   establish   the  Michael  C.  Olshausen  Lecture  Fund,   an   endowment   that   will   support   event  programming  on  Europe.      Members  of  the  CGES  community  celebrated  the  gift  at  a  reception  and  dinner  held  in  April  2014;  those  in   attendance   included  members   of   the  Olshausen  family.

FUNDRAISING  LETTER  TO  MAGES  ALUMNI,  NOVEMBER  2013    Dear  CGES  Alumni,    Greetings  from  the  Hilltop!  I  hope  this  letter  finds  you  and  yours  in  good  health  and  spirits.  I’m  writing  because,  for  the  first  time  in  the  23-­‐year  history  of  the  Center,  we  need  your  help.      The  Center   has   always  been   special.   I   noticed   this   first   thing  when   I   arrived   in   the   fall   of   2000   as   a   one-­‐year   visiting  professor.   Everything   about   the   place,   and   especially   the  MAGES  program,   reflected   a   care   and   concern   for   quality.  Now  this  is  not  necessarily  unique;  many  MA  programs,  in  SFS  and  beyond,  stress  quality.  What  makes  us  distinctive  is  that  quality   is   combined  with  a  quintessential  Georgetown  value:  cura  personalis,  or  “care  of  the  whole  person”.  Even  casual  visitors  to  the  Center  come  away  impressed  with  the  warm  and  welcoming  climate,  the  open  doors  of  faculty  and  staff  offices,  and  the  strong  bonds  that  exist  between  and  among  the  students,  which  actually  resemble  attachments  more  commonly  associated  with  the  undergraduate  experience.  This  powerful  ethos  was  forged  during  the  first  decade  of  the  Center’s  existence,  and  my  main  goal  as  Director  since  2002  has  been  to  preserve  and  strengthen  it.      One  of  my  responsibilities  as  Center  Director  is  to  think  about  the  long  term  health  of  the  Center  and  its  central  mission,  the  MAGES  program.  I  am  pleased  to  report  that  our  future  is  promising.  The  Center  is  on  a  firm  financial  foundation,  drawing   on   stable   endowment   and   tuition   revenue   flows.   Thanks   to   grant   writing   and   a   recent   bequest/gift   to   the  Center,   we   are   on   the   cusp   of   creating   a   new   core   faculty   position   in   the   Center,   focusing   on   business  economics/political  economy.  The  number  of  applicants  and  the  size  of  our  entering  classes  have  held  steady  over  the  years,   bucking   broader   downward   trends   in   higher   education   in   the   United   States,   and   the   quality   of   our   entering  classes   continues   to   impress.   And   thanks   to   an   engaged   faculty   and   professional   staff,   the  MAGES   curriculum   and  broader   professional   development   program   remain   innovative,   nimble,   and   relevant   in   a   changing   and   challenging  environment.      There   is   a   cause   for   concern   in   this   upbeat   narrative,   and   it   relates   to   the   MAGES   program’s   ability   to   attract  international   students.  Up  until  2005,  we  could  expect  stable  proportions  in  the  admissions  cycle:  approximately  one-­‐third   of   our   applicants   and   a   corresponding   fraction   of   the  matriculating   class   hailed   from   overseas,   almost   always  Europe.  Since  then,  these  proportions  have  dropped  steadily  and  in  tandem,  to  the  point  where  we  are  now  down  to  ten  percent  international.  The  reasons  behind  this  decline  are  clear  and,   I  regret  to  say,  beyond  the  control  of  the  Center;  they  include  rising  graduate  tuition  costs,  declining  availability  of  student   loans  to  non-­‐US  citizens,  and  the  growth  of  low-­‐cost  options  for  master’s  level  study  in  Europe.    We  all  benefit  immensely  from  having  a  critical  mass  of  international  students  who  participate  in  the  rich  and  variegated  intellectual   life   of   the   Center.   International   students   bring   unique   perspectives   and   experiences   into   the   classroom,  which   enrich   the   learning  environment   for  American  students.  And   the   opportunity   to   study   alongside  Americans   in  Washington,  DC  is  a  transformative  experience  for  our  international  students.  The  resulting  ties-­‐that-­‐bind  are  not  just  a  microcosm  of   the   larger   transatlantic   relationship,   they  are  part  and  parcel   of   that   relationship.  My   fear   –   shared  by  colleagues   as   well   as   alumni   I   have   talked   to   –   is   that   we   are   now   perilously   close   to   losing   our   critical   mass   of  international  students.      To  address   this  worrisome  situation,  the   Center   is   launching   a   long-­‐term   fundraising   campaign   to   create   endowed  tuition  scholarships  for  international  students.  The  scholarship  support  will  be  given  in  the  name  of  Dr.  Gregory  Flynn,  a  co-­‐founder  of  the  center  back  in  1990  and  the  architect  of  the  MAGES  program.  Greg,  who  passed  away  ten  years  ago  in   November,   was   fiercely   and   passionately   devoted   to   the   MAGES   students,   and   to   the   mission   of   the   Center   in  furthering   their  education   and   their   careers.  We  want   to   honor  Greg’s  devotion   by   naming   these   critically   important  scholarships  in  his  name.      Please  consider  making  a  tax-­‐deductible  charitable  donation  to  this  worthy  endeavor,  using  the  gift  envelope  provided  by   the  Georgetown  University  Office  of  Advancement.  This   is  a   standard   template,   so  please  don’t  be  put  off  by   the  high  end  of  the  donation  range!  We  would  be  grateful  for  any  amount  you  feel  you  can  contribute.      We  thank  you  for  your  support  of  the  Center  and  its  important  mission.  Stay  connected  through  the  newsletter  sent  out  via  email  by  Julia  Sylla,  Supervisor  of  Academic  Programs,  and  our  website.  And  please  stop  by  and  visit  us  should  your  travels  take  you  near  the  Hilltop!

Panel  One:  "A  Continent  of  Many  Languages  Learns  to  Speak  with  One  Voice"    Many  in  the  world  would  like  to  see  the  European  Union  speak  in  a  single  voice.  However,  are  such  expectations  realistic  when  28  countries  need  to  consistently  agree  on  a  common  foreign  policy  approach  to  individual  problems?  Has  the  decision-­‐making  process  in  Common  Foreign  and  Security  Policy  become  more  efficient  since  the  institutional  reforms  of  the  Lisbon  Treaty?  This  expert  panel  will  discuss  how  European  foreign  policy  could  become  more  cohesive  and  understandable.  What  institutional  and  doctrinal  reforms  may  help  achieve  this  goal?  It  will  also  consider  the  recommendations  of  the  2013  EEAS  review  and  the  practical  implications  of  the  December  2013  Summit  of  the  European  Council,  particularly  in  the  security  and  defense  field.    Expert  Panel  Featuring:  F.  Stephen  Larrabee,  Distinguished  Chair  in  European  Security-­‐  RAND  Corporation  Jean  François  Pactet,  Visiting  Fellow,  Europe  Program  -­‐  Center  for  Strategic  &  International  Studies  (CSIS)

Panel  Two:  "Building  New  Bridges:  EU  Neighborhood  Policy  10  Years  Later"    In  2004,  the  EU  launched  the  European  Neighborhood  Policy  with  the  stated  intent  of  promoting  ‘stability,  security,  and  well-­‐being  for  all.’  This  panel  will  evaluate  the  success  of  the  ENP  thus  far.  Has  the  ENP  succeeded  or  failed  in  making  the  EU’s  neighborhood  more  stable  and  secure?  What  about  the  world  outside  of  the  EU’s  immediate  neighborhood?  How  do  the  interventions  in  Libya  and  Mali  fit  into  Neighborhood  Policy  or  conflict  with  it?  What  does  this  mean  for  the  future  of  the  EU’s  neighborhood?    Student  Panel  Featuring:  Jacob  Schrot,  Humboldt  University  Volha  Charnysh,  Harvard  University  Marta  Mylyan,  University  of  Konstanz  Elnur  Ismayilov,  University  of  Münster    Keynote  Speech  with  Richard  Kauzlarich,  Non-­‐Resident  Senior  Fellow  at  Brookings  Institution,  Former  U.S.  National  Intelligence  Officer  for  Europe  (2003-­‐2011),  Former  U.S.  Ambassador  to  Bosnia  &  Herzegovina  (1997-­‐1999)  and  to  Azerbaijan  (1994-­‐1997)    Panel  Three:  "Greater  than  the  Sum  of  its  Parts?  Taking  the  Long  View  on  the  Common  Foreign  and  Security  Policy"    Since  the  introduction  of  the  Common  Foreign  and  Security  Policy,  European  Union  member  states  have  increasing  opportunities  to  harness  shared  diplomatic  resources  to  engage  the  wider  world.  But  should  they?  The  near  future  will  indicate  whether  the  CFSP  presents  immense  opportunities  for  a  supranational  diplomatic  framework,  or  whether  it  will  dilute  the  foreign  policy  initiatives  of  sovereign  member  states.  How  will  the  priorities  of  national  foreign  policies  shift  as  a  result  of  the  CFSP?  Will  the  transatlantic  partnership  with  the  United  States  remain  a  priority,  particularly  in  the  wake  of  transatlantic  surveillance  and  security  breaches?  Or  will  the  European  Union  orchestrate  a  collective  pivot  of  their  own?  Join  our  expert  panel  to  discuss  the  future  of  (shared?)  foreign  policy  in  Europe.    Expert  Panel  Featuring:  Christopher  Chivvis,  Senior  Political  Scientist  -­‐  RAND  Corporation    Angela  Stent,  Director,  Center  for  Eurasian,  Russian  &  East  European  Studies  -­‐Georgetown  University  Kenneth  Yalowitz,  Professor  and  former  U.S.  ambassador  to  the  Republics  of  Belarus  and  Georgia  -­‐  Georgetown  University  Dieter  Dettke  (Moderator),  Adjunct  Professor,  Center  for  Security  Studies  -­‐  Georgetown  University    Panel  Four:  "Is  it  a  Zero-­‐Sum  Game?  The  Contest  for  Influence  over  Eastern  Europe  and  Central  Asia"    The  EU’s  recent  quest  for  building  closer  ties  with  neighboring  post-­‐Soviet  countries  and  the  Caucasus  region  has  increased  tensions  with  Russia.  This  panel  will  discuss  the  role  of  the  Eastern  Partnership  and  other  EU  initiatives,  the  prospects  for  further  EU  expansion  eastward,  and  the  tensions  surrounding  the  Vilnius  Summit  of  November  2013.  Will  the  growing  tension  between  Russia  and  the  EU  result  in  countries  having  to  pick  between  the  two  for  partnerships?  Or  is  there  a  way  for  Russia  and  the  EU  to  share  influence  in  this  region  without  challenging  the  other’s  authority?  How  could  this  tension  affect  the  EU’s  foreign  policy  in  the  future?    Student  Panel  Featuring:  Tomasz  Dziadkowiec  and  Greta  Butaviciute,  Johns  Hopkins  SAIS  Hasmik  Grigoryan,  Yerevan  State  University  Jana  Vránková,  University  of  Economics,  Prague  Noah  Solomon,  Georgia  Institute  of  Technology
