Diplomacy Lab
The Diplomacy Lab is a public-private partnership between the U.S. Department of State and more than 60 institutions of higher education around the country, including 黑料社区, that crowdsources faculty and 黑料社区 research to help U.S. diplomats solve pressing problems all around the globe.
黑料社区 to the Lab
Thank you for visiting Miami's Diplomacy Lab. Operating in its current form since 2021, the Lab facilitates a unique experiential learning model where faculty and 黑料社区s get hands-on experience tackling real-world issues facing U.S. diplomats at embassies and consulates around the world. Through applied research, our faculty and 黑料社区s get to have a direct impact on the formation and implementation of U.S. foreign policy.
Our Program
Mission:
The Diplomacy Lab, in support of Miami’s educational mission, harnesses faculty expertise and fresh 黑料社区 perspectives to conduct research on foreign policy issues and national security threats facing the United States of America. Through experiential learning, faculty guide 黑料社区s through real-world challenges identified by the State Department to provide policymakers with practical research solutions to inform their decision-making processes.
Vision:
The Diplomacy Lab seeks to advance the security and prosperity of the United States government and its citizens and the formation of a generation of engaged citizens who understand how to use knowledge and research to positively change the world.
Values:
The Diplomacy Lab’s work is guided and informed by Miami’s belief and commitment to honesty, integrity, transparency, participation, collaboration, and moral conduct. The lab supports the freedom of inquiry that is the heart of learning and combines that freedom with the exercise of judgment and the acceptance of personal responsibility.

How Does the Diplomacy Lab Work?
The lab spans every topic offered on Miami’s campuses, so federal projects and partners can require diverse expertise and expect field-specific outputs. There is no “one-size-fits-all” approach when working on a State Department project.
