International and Global Studies in the Department of Foreign Languages, Literatures, and Cultures

Join our department to explore international and global studies, with a focus on cultural and transnational issues. Our curriculum includes courses on history, international relations, foreign policy analysis, and more. At the postgraduate level, we offer specialized courses on transatlantic relations, world politics, and the external relations of the European Union. We also offer a 3rd level postgraduate degree in Peace Studies, which includes mandatory internships and work experience. However, we are facing challenges such as bureaucratic obstacles, internal resistance, and language barriers.
