The programme aims to provide students with the necessary knowledge and skills to take advantage of an increasing range of professional opportunities with a European or an international dimension. The curriculum is comprised of a variety of modules in the field of humanities and social sciences, with importance attached to an intensive study of another foreign language. In addition to a comprehensive grounding in the discipline of International Relations, students can develop their specialisation further by choosing from a list of more advanced courses in political, legal and economic studies.
