The Alexander Hamilton Society

The Alexander Hamilton Society is Vanderbilt's only nonpartisan organization focusing on American foreign policy, national security, and economic statecraft. We bring in distinguished speakers from the public sector, think tanks, and academia who speak on foreign policy and international affairs.

Vanderbilt AHS also offers fully-funded book clubs, crisis simulations, and community conversations about international relations. Vanderbilt AHS, is part of the national Alexander Hamilton Society network, which connects students to jobs, scholarships, and other professional development opportunities in the foreign policy world. Our chapter boasts a commitment to connecting its members to the very best opportunities in Washington, DC and beyond.

Ideologically, AHS believes "the world is a better, safer, and more prosperous place when the United States is willing and able to lead; and a commitment to maintaining the moral authority and material strength on which that leadership rests."
