The Martin School

The establishment of the Martin School in 2011 provided a basis for closer collaboration between related programs at the University of Idaho. The Martin School houses the International Studies Program, the Department of Philosophy, and the Department of Political Science. In addition to these academic units, the Martin Institute and the McClure Center are associated, respectively, with the Program in International Studies and the Department of Political Science. Students in the Martin School benefit from the combined, interdisciplinary perspectives of its dedicated faculty as well as from the two research units.

The Martin School is named for Boyd Martin, longtime Dean of the then-College of Letters and Science. It is housed in the College of Letters, Arts, and Social Sciences, where much of Dr. Martin’s legacy is felt.
