About
In the Bachelor in International Relations, students have a choice of pursuing the degree with either an emphasis in International Economics or in Migration and Refugee Studies, so they will gain added knowledge and mastery of one of these important sub-disciplines in international relations.
Students are not only exposed to the theories of international affairs, but also its realities ‘on the ground,’ including practicalities of the many states and non-state actors that represent the scope of today’s international arena. Whether studying the history of the Middle East, the fundamentals of human rights, environmental governance or the push-and-pull factors of international migration, students will learn from a rotation of both expert professors and practitioners.
The study program is further enhanced by having guest speakers from the various international bodies and field trips to designated agencies in Geneva.
