This is a one-year Master programme in which students will deepen their knowledge of political science and research methods. During the first two terms, students follow core classes in research methods and choose optional classes from a wide range of specialized seminars in the areas of comparative politics, policy analysis, political theory, political behaviour, and methods. The modules also cover a large variety of themes and trending topics in modern international politics such as EU integration, Ecology, Gender or Migration. The third term is dedicated to writing your own final research project in the form of a final Master Thesis.
