Advisor of the Year 2011

  • Professor Rahman
    Professor Rahman   "A huge strength of the way we do advising here is that I can deal with each student as an individual. I can provide information, interpretation, [and] advice about whom the student should contact and so on. But perhaps more importantly, I can be an individual face and name, so that a student isn't left with no idea about where to go to get the help they need."

Student Quote: "Prof. Rahman is amazing. I know she has my absolute best interests at heart, and she always has insightful information into ideas or classes I'd never heard of. In addition to all of her academic help, she's definitely been someone I can go and talk to when I have questions about non-academic things, or even when I just want to chat."

The 2011 - 2012 Advisor of the Year is Professor Katherine Rahman, who holds an appointment in the Government department and is the Associate Director of the International Relations program and currently serves as the Director of Advising for International Relations.

Dr. Rahman has been a part of the faculty at William and 玛丽 since 1989. Her PhD is in Foreign Affairs from the University of Virginia. Her research areas of interest include international law and the international system. She served as the Director of the W&M in Washington Program when the program was first established. She was instrumental in redesigning the International Relations major and has been advising IR majors ever since. She particularly enjoys the opportunity to meet prospective students and their parents, and to discuss the benefits of being a W&M student.
