About this programme

International Relations scholars ask questions such as: How do states manage their coexistence? What factors impact human migration? Can multinational corporations undermine political stability? International Relations studies cross-border interactions between various groups to understand how such interactions affect people, states, regions, and the global community. This program will give you a solid foundation in the economic, political, and socio-historical interactions between nations. During the course of your studies, you'll gain statistical analysis skills, research capabilities, written and verbal communication skills, and complete course work in at least one language other than English. ​As an International Relations graduate, you'll be prepared for career opportunities in areas such as the civil service, the non-profit sector, and the business world.
