Overview

Run by the Department of Political Science, Communication and International Relations, and entirely taught in English, the 2-year master’s degree programme International Relations offers the benefit of small classes in a fresh and interactive environment.

Courses are taught with a special attention to the current development and phenomena in each field, and students are always encouraged to nurture their own critical approach and supported to express their skills and follow their inclination.

When engaged in confrontations during and after classes, IR students bring with them the specialty of their different heritage, upbringing and education – an invaluable asset to learn more and better.

IR puts together the institutional perspective of a school of government and the empirical, in-the-field approach of business studies – many interdisciplinary, highly interwoven opportunities for the ideal cultural equipment to those interested as a vocation in decoding the complexities of our world and in taking part in its processes.

Post-graduate students will be able to properly employ those analytical tools acquired while attending courses in politics, economics, sociology, history, law and foreign languages.
