Our BA in Politics and International Relations with a year abroad integrates two key disciplines from POLSIS. This program is designed for students fascinated by global interactions between nations, cultures, and societies, while also exploring political theories and real-world applications.
You'll develop essential workplace competencies throughout this degree, including analytical reasoning, creative problem-solving, effective communication, and innovative thinking.
The study of politics examines power dynamics, decision-making processes, and key political actors. This curriculum covers electoral campaigns, social movements, policy debates, and ideological frameworks. You'll engage with competing perspectives, diverse theoretical approaches, and alternative interpretations while honing your abilities in critical analysis, research methodology, persuasive argumentation, and self-directed learning.
