International Comparative Education (ICE) is a multidisciplinary, international, cross-cultural program of training that places educational problems into an international comparative framework. Core courses explore how education is related to economic, political, and social development in both developed and developing countries. The program provides a strong theoretical and empirical base for studying education in a rapidly changing global context and for understanding the how and why of successful policy-making to improve educational practice in different social settings.

In both its training and research activities, ICE has developed a special concern for the study of education in less developed countries. At the same time, several faculty are engaged in research comparing educational policies and conditions in the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) countries. The relationships among educational research, educational policy, and educational planning are important in the program's intellectual agenda.

In both its PhD and MA programs, ICE tries to meet the needs of professionals who are willing to question conventional beliefs and models about the role of education in society. disciplines-economics, sociology, political science, and anthropology-to the study of education and development.
