The teaching process, grades and the quality guarantee are compliant with the British educational standards. The students pursue a single course and write a single MA thesis but are awarded two degrees: British and Polish. The curriculum meets the needs and expectations of students from Europe and beyond. 

We do believe that good political or diplomatic leadership requires foresight and insight, tying ethics with necessities, and integrity with difficult compromises. At the same time leadership is different from purely economic managerial skills. A good leader has to see the political community as a bond between the past, the present and the future generations and therefore adopt a deeper and longer perspective than a typical manager. Thus, the MA in International Relations offers an opportunity to obtain not only an insight into the political process, but also into ways to help people to change their lives. 

International phenomena determine the lives of nations, communities and individuals. Politics, religion, human rights, economy, business, environment, health, terrorism, security, war, high and popular culture, science and education are interconnected and interdependent across national borders and continents. Understanding international conditions is the biggest challenge of today and tomorrow. 

The ability and skills to shape one’s local and regional political life will be the greatest professional challenge for the ambitious young people, the leaders of the future.  

International Relations is one of the world’s most popular and fastest growing areas of multidisciplinary social science studies on all levels and is an ideal field of study for people who are curious about the world, and who wish to exert an influence on the social and political realities of global affairs.
