Master in International Relations and Development Policy

This program is designed for students interested in the intersection of international relations and development policy. It spans two years and is offered at the Duisburg campus. Ideal candidates are those who are passionate about global governance, peacebuilding, and regional studies, particularly in East Asia, Europe, and Sub-Saharan Africa.

The curriculum includes modules on global governance, development theories, and conflict resolution. Students will engage in practical experiences through an eight-week international stay, which can be tailored to their academic or practical interests. This hands-on approach equips students with the skills necessary to navigate complex global issues and prepares them for a dynamic job market.

Graduates can pursue various roles such as Policy Analyst, Development Consultant, International Relations Specialist, or Project Manager in NGOs. They are well-prepared for careers in governmental and non-governmental organizations, think tanks, and international agencies, where their expertise in international politics and development will be highly valued.
