COURSE CURRICULUM

The MA in International Relations and Global Crises equips students with advanced knowledge and practical skills to navigate and address complex global challenges. The program combines theoretical frameworks with applied learning to explore contemporary issues in international politics, security, and global governance. Core modules cover topics such as peacebuilding communication, regional integration and security, and the dynamics of international crises, allowing students to critically examine the causes, consequences, and solutions to global conflicts and humanitarian challenges. Students also study the evolution of international systems, including the rise and fall of the welfare state, providing historical context for current international relations. The course emphasizes research, analytical thinking, and practical application, culminating in an independent project that enables students to conduct in-depth study on a topic of their choice, integrating theory and real-world analysis. Practical components in key modules allow students to develop skills in policy assessment, negotiation, and strategic communication, preparing them to engage with international organizations, governments, and NGOs. Graduates emerge with a robust understanding of global political, economic, and social issues, as well as the ability to propose evidence-based solutions to complex international problems, making them well-prepared for careers in diplomacy, policy analysis, humanitarian work, and global governance.
