美利堅大學 [3](American University,簡稱 AUAmerican),也譯为美國大學[4],是一所位于美國華盛頓特區的私立文理學院及研究型大學,由衛理公會教派联合會創辦。[5]因地處華盛頓特區,尤以國際服務學院的政治學國際關係學發展經濟學等社會科學著名。根據2024年的美國新聞與世界報導,美利堅大學在全美國家級大學中排名第91名[6]

历史

该校是經由1892年12月5日一部美國國会通过、總統本傑明·哈里森批准的法令成立的,法人名稱“美利堅大學”(The American University)。[7][8] 1957年在美國總統艾森豪威爾的支持下成立國際服務學院(School of International Service)。該校歷史與美國政治史與美國外交史關係緊密。

現況

美利堅大學與喬治城大學(Georgetown University)、喬治華盛頓大學(The George Washington University)並稱「華府三大學」。美國大學的國際服務學院、公共事務學院和傳媒學院名列前茅。現在該校有大約 6000 名大學部學生、3912 名研究生。美國歷史上的總統從肯尼迪奧巴馬都訪問過美利堅大學,並且有六任美國總統在美利堅大學擔任董事會任職,每一位美國總統都曾經在大學為師生們做精彩演講分享。

該校位於美國首府華盛頓特區的西北區眾所周知的使館區,離市中心不遠,距離白宮車程15分鐘,緊鄰世界銀行,貨幣基金組織等機構,屬於華府地區最安全的地區之一。由於地處美國政治中心首都華盛頓,所以美利堅大學在政治學、公共事務、管理及國際關係等專業學科上排名名列前茅,並擁有全美最大,全球第二大的國際服務學院。全校學生實習率高達89%。[9]
