Policies, Cooperation and Development
Bachelor’s Degree in Politics, Cooperation and Development is a multidisciplinary course focused on understanding and engaging with global and local socio-political dynamics. It provides integrated training in political science, international relations, development economics, public and comparative law, human rights, demography, geography, and area studies (Africa, Latin America, Asia, the Middle East, Eastern Europe), alongside two modern languages. From the first year, students deepen their knowledge through specialised modules in cooperation and development, political sociology, and anthropological studies.
Admission is open access and requires a recognised secondary school diploma; an orientation test assesses students’ aptitudes but does not restrict entry. The curriculum blends lectures, seminars, and hands-on laboratory exercises—including an initial study skills workshop—to develop analytical, critical, and communication abilities. Internship and thesis opportunities are encouraged, preparing students to design and implement interventions in cooperation, development, human rights, and public policy.
International mobility is strongly supported: students benefit from Erasmus+ exchange programmes, as well as research-intensive workshops and summer schools held abroad. This international experience enhances cultural awareness and professional readiness in global governance and development fields. Graduates are primed for roles in international organisations, NGOs, public institutions, diplomatic services, and cultural or development agencies, with skills in programme design, mediation, policy analysis, and cross-cultural communication.
