What are career options for someone interested in international relations?

You'll probably get more comprehensive responses on a PoliSci or international relations forum rather than robotics, but the civil service/USDOS/etc have a lot more positions than just FSO. You could probably find something that matched your interest. As an Air Force ROTC cadet with a political science minor (engineering major), I'm only really familiar with the military side--and not much at that--but it's worth a look.

I see Team 78 is sponsored by NDEP; your NUWC mentors may have some insight. EDIT: ...you're on FTC 78. Sorry, never mind.

There is always, of course, the French Foriegn Legion...

More seriously, international business or media/communications could be another option. French, alas (I do work for a French company), is probably not the most useful language, but it's not a bad one either.

This would be easier if international relations and language skills were combined with either business or technical skills.

A college friend of mine worked for many years in international finance. During school she spent a year of two in France and then after graduation joined a firm in San Fransisco.
