Marcie Washington

Marcie Washington serves as an Associate Teaching Professor and Associate Director of Undergraduate Studies in the Department of Politics and International Relations at Florida International University's Steven J. Green School of International and Public Affairs. Based at the Modesto Maidique Campus in SIPA 1-411, she teaches courses on international relations, security studies, and migration politics while overseeing undergraduate program development.

Her educational background includes:

• Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from the College of Charleston
• Master of Arts in International Affairs from Florida State University
• Doctor of Philosophy in Conflict Analysis and Resolution from Nova Southeastern University

Dr. Washington's research examines the dual roles of refugees, diaspora communities, and internally displaced persons as both catalysts for political unrest and agents of peacebuilding. She investigates how collective memories of historical grievances shape group identities and influence contentious tactics, emphasizing socio-psychological processes in conflict resolution. Her interdisciplinary approach bridges migration studies, security frameworks, and peacebuilding methodologies to analyze power dynamics in contested environments.

She teaches courses including International Negotiation, Challenges of Refugees and Migrants, Conflict Security and Peace Studies, Politics of Development and Underdevelopment, and Strategic Studies and National Security. These courses explore intersections between human agency, human rights protections, and security paradigms through case studies of migration-driven conflicts.
