The Bachelor's programme in International Relations at Maria Curie-Skłodowska University in Lublin, Poland, offers a multidimensional study of the contemporary global system across three years and six semesters, taught in English. It is designed for students interested in the political, social, security, environmental and cultural dimensions of international and transnational relations, with coursework spanning global, regional and national levels. The curriculum combines a core set of required courses with electives that students choose according to their own interests, alongside professional workshops, foreign language courses and diploma seminars intended to build analytical and practical skills such as public speaking, academic writing, professional presentations, debating and discussion. The programme offers three specializations: Global Economy and Business; Regional Studies - Central-East Europe; and Regional Studies - Asia and Pacific, allowing students to focus on a chosen region or sector and prepare for related careers. Graduates are prepared for work with international organizations, both multilateral and bilateral, trans-border structures and cooperation bodies, global and transnational business, public policy bodies engaged in foreign policy and diplomacy, and related fields. The next intake begins on October 1, 2026, with an application deadline of September 15, 2026. International relations as a discipline more broadly draws on political science, economics, law and history to examine how states, institutions and non-state actors interact, and graduates commonly pursue careers in diplomacy, trade, development, journalism, and public administration, or continue to master's-level study in related social science fields.
