The international relations undergraduate program equips students with analytical abilities, cultural awareness, and language proficiency essential for navigating today's global landscape, thriving in international settings, and pursuing advanced studies or professional opportunities worldwide. This interdisciplinary curriculum draws from various social sciences - including anthropology, economics, geography, history, political science, and sociology - offering students diverse methodologies to examine pressing global issues and cultivate a sense of global responsibility.
Students typically apply for the MA IR component of this combined degree program in their junior year spring semester, after declaring their major and earning at least 75 undergraduate credits.
Prospective applicants should consult with the MA IR program's admissions director prior to submission. Required application materials usually include two faculty recommendations from Syracuse University, a current resume, a personal statement, and academic transcripts. Syracuse University undergraduates are exempt from submitting GRE and TOEFL scores.
