WHY IS OUR PROGRAM UNIQUE?
The program is set up with the goal of providing students with the theoretical approaches, factual knowledge and practical skills that they need to become effective real-world problem-solvers in an environment where both the challenges we face and the frameworks in which these changes can be addressed are increasingly global and multicultural in nature. Our graduates have a deep and comprehensive understanding of social, political and economic analyses that enable them to understand the rapidly changing nature of global policy challenges and political relations. Furthermore, the program also equips them with the communication and management skills that make them successful even when working in highly complex and demanding environments.
This program is for you if you wish to work in global political and social relations, want to be able to use foreign languages professionally, or harness global forces and opportunities in pursuit of your goals. The program teaches about the world of diplomacy, international organizations and transnational corporations. It is a good fit for students who want to acquire a sound understanding of how the world economy works and seize the opportunities it provides.
This program familiarizes students with the workings of the global architecture of decentralized governance that runs the world today and, with the tensions and openings it generates. It gives our graduates a clear advantage in our complex and fast-paced world by arming them with the knowledge and skills necessary for understanding and making use of the inner logic of global relations, anticipating the direction in which they develop, and drawing on the opportunities these changes bring.
This program empowers students, allowing them to navigate with success and ease in a globalized world linked together and shaped not only by diplomatic relations between states but also by manifold transnational fields, forces and actors.
