Course description
The Degree Course in Political Science and International Relations presents a single curricular path that aims to deepen the study and knowledge of essential subjects for the training of every three-year graduate in Political Science and International Relations. Therefore, the Degree Course is characterized by a strong and rational multidisciplinarity that is realized with the activation of scientific-disciplinary sectors in the historical, historical-political and political science, sociological, philosophical, legal and economic-social fields. The path also includes an English language course (as a mandatory exam) and a second mandatory language - to be chosen between Spanish and French. The path is completed with a mandatory internship or stage to be completed in public and private entities with an agreement. This is also due to new collaborations with international organizations such as the UN, NGOs and other public and private entities.
Adequate knowledge in the historical-political field. The knowledge for access will be assessed through a verification test that will determine any training obligations to be recovered within the academic year.
