Programme Introduction

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.
