The Middlebury Institute of International Studies at Monterey (MIIS) (formerly known as the Monterey Institute of International Studies) is a graduate school of Middlebury College that offers master's degrees in international policy, environmental policy, international business, language teaching, and translation and interpretation. The Institute, which was founded in 1955, is located in Monterey, California, USA.
The Institute has two graduate professional schools, the Graduate School of Translation, Interpretation, and Language Education and the Graduate School of International Policy and Management, and several related centers. The Institute awards Master of Arts (MA), Master of Business Administration (MBA), and Master of Public Administration (MPA) degrees, and numerous certificates across a variety of disciplines. The Institute's mission is to create an academic community dedicated to preparing the next generation of leaders in cross-cultural, multilingual environments. In 2011, the Institute produced more Fulbright Fellows per capita than any other graduate school in the US. In 2015, Foreign Policy magazine ranked the Institute #21 on its list of "Top Master's Programs for a Policy Career in International Relations."
The Middlebury Institute was established in 1955 as the Monterey Institute for Foreign Studies. In 1961, the school moved to its current downtown Monterey location, where it has since occupied 19 buildings that house two graduate schools, multiple centers, and numerous special programs. In 1997, the Institute became the first professional graduate school in the world to offer a master's degree in International Environmental Policy.
