PGLS is an intensive one week program in Moscow, Russia that engages students through stimulating lectures and challenging simulations. Participants will work closely with other young leaders from around the world and build enduring friendships. Students will join a distinguished faculty that includes PGLF founder Dr. Sam Potolicchio (Georgetown University, New York University, RANEPA), Dr. Grigore Pop-Eleches (Princeton) and  Dr. Branden Thornhill-Miller (Oxford, Sorbonne). Delegates will listen to world-class professors, politicians, diplomats, and other distinguished speakers. They will also participate in a number of simulations including parliamentary, speech-making, diplomatic and business competitions.

Applications are considered and decisions rendered on a rolling basis. Although July 1, 2016 is the final deadline to apply, we encourage students to apply as early as possible as many spaces will be filled prior to the July 1, 2016 deadline. Students seeking financial aid to offset a portion of their tuition should apply by July 15, 2016. Applying early will also allow students to book flights earlier and will allow more time to obtain a visa if necessary
