The programme also supports the development of practical diplomatic skills and intercultural expertise that can be applied at all levels of intercultural relations. Graduates are prepared to work as specialists in public administration units and as members of diplomatic corps, and the skills they gain make them suited to roles in territorial administration, local governments, or as liaison managers within international companies.

American studies as a discipline covers the history, politics, culture, and international relations of the United States and Canada, and programmes that combine this with diplomatic and language training prepare graduates for careers that require both regional expertise and practical negotiation and communication skills across international and intercultural settings, including government, business, and non-governmental organizations.
