Georgetown University began studying the feasibility of opening a campus of the Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service in Qatar in October 2002, when the Qatar Foundation, which is funding the entire enterprise, first proposed the idea. In consultation with government officials, Washington-based embassies from nations of the region, academic institutions in the region, business leaders, Catholic and Jesuit leaders, and other officials, Georgetown evaluated this opportunity to ensure that it built appropriately on its international presence and academic excellence and is consistent with the Catholic-Jesuit identity of the University.
