For over 135 years, NYU's Graduate School of Arts and Science (GSAS) has cultivated exceptional global leaders. The MA in International Relations (MAIR) upholds this legacy by equipping students with comprehensive training in international affairs through an academically rigorous program. Our graduate curriculum examines International Relations through multiple disciplinary lenses and diverse methodological approaches. By collaborating with faculty across GSAS, as well as experts from the Law School, Stern School of Business, and Wagner School of Public Service, MAIR students enjoy unparalleled flexibility in customizing their academic path and professional development. The program further enhances learning through engaging events featuring scholars, professionals, and peers to foster intellectual exchange in the field.
Beyond the listed requirements, students must achieve advanced proficiency in a modern European language (including speaking, listening, reading, and writing), verified either by passing a proficiency exam or completing a third-year language course with a minimum grade of B.
