THE BEAUTY OF EMBRACING NEW PERSPECTIVES
The study of international relations has become central to understand and manage the complexity of global social life. The landscape of international relations has expanded considerably with a number of new challenges confronting today's society. Against this backdrop, the need to properly manage risks and opportunities related to globalisation, international institutions and global political economy requires the development of advanced management skills. The Master's Degree Programme in Economics and International Management – International Relations Curriculum develops the critical skills, insight and global awareness required for a successful career in international relations, politics and law. Vital to this is the constantly increasing number of courses taught in English by leading experts with experience in international organisations and institutions such as the IFAD, NATO, the UN, and the World Bank. Students are given the chance to attend all the courses taught in English. The Programme offers a fascinating insight into core concepts related to international relations, as well as into the normative and economic issues involved. Students explore a broad range of issues, including foreign policy, international organisations and NGOs, international law and international relations. Furthermore, they are offered the opportunity to participate in the School of Political Science at no additional cost. The study of Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish as a second foreign language is also included in the Programme. Students may apply for a Double Master's Degree Programme (fully taught in English), thereby strengthening both their cultural and linguistic knowledge, core elements when pursuing international careers.
The normal requirement for admission to the Master’s degree in Economics and International Management (LM-77) is one of the following qualifications:
The Master's Degree Programme in Economics and International Management – Curriculum in International Relations provides students with a considerable expertise in the field of international relations, with particular emphasis on the underlying economic and political aspects. They will be able to work at an advanced level in international governmental and non-governmental organisations, multinational corporations, economic and political research centres, administrations, organisations and institutions working in the field of diplomacy, non-profit businesses, and public and private organisations whose business consists in the protection of national and international economic and political interests.
