I will consider studying dual degree in IE mba and Tuft's fletcher school. In the program, I will take management degree and internation affairs degree in about two years. After finishing IE MBA first, I will start my studying in Tuft.
My concern is the reputation of IE in U.S.A. Even though IE was ranked in top 10 business school in Financial times, I guess that many US employers do not know IE business school.
In fact, my career goal is to work in Public Sector. I want to build up my career in multilateral institution in the Washington DC, USA. Thus, I think that the reputation in US is important. I believe that public sector in US know about Tuft's international master program. However, I wonder whether public sector in US know about IE mba program.

Your best bet would be to call up and interview people in the political world and ask their opinion of IE. Do political consultancies hire from IE? The alumni relations office or career center at IE could likely help you track down alumni who work in the US in the political arena as well. You are smart to do this kind of due dilligence before choosing your school. It will pay off when it comes time to get a job.
