Political Science
Bachelor’s Degree in Political Science is designed to develop an interdisciplinary understanding of contemporary and global political phenomena. Students acquire robust foundations across political science, law, economics, sociology, history, demography, statistics, and two foreign languages (one from the EU). The curriculum begins with core studies, then branches into four specialised pathways: Global Politics & International Relations; European Studies; Contemporary Politics; and Political Economy & Society. Teaching methods include lectures, seminars, focus groups, essays, papers, and oral exams.
Admission is open-access and requires a recognised secondary school diploma. Students are also required to take the CISIA-based TOLCSPS test to assess initial proficiency in political science-related areas; enrolment is not contingent on passing, but results may determine Additional Formative Obligations. Assessments are continuous, including written and oral examinations at the end of each course. Graduates develop critical thinking, analytical capabilities, and autonomy of judgement—preparing them for civic, administrative, diplomatic, and research-related careers.
International mobility is actively promoted through Erasmus+ and faculty-level exchange agreements. Students can spend one or two semesters abroad, earning credits at partner universities while benefiting from full access to facilities and services. Additionally, they have opportunities to participate in internships, summer schools, and research workshops abroad. Graduates are well-qualified for work in public institutions, NGOs, international organisations, diplomacy, policy analysis, or they may continue to master’s degrees in fields like International Relations, Public Administration, Digital Society, or Global Security.
