Program details

Overview

The one-year introduction to political science takes students through how politics is made, shaped and experienced in everyday life. Students take courses alongside first- and second-year bachelor students and cover at least three of the four main areas of the subject: international politics, comparative politics, political theory, and public policy and administration. They also learn to carry out statistical analysis in the social sciences and can focus on a more specialised topic. The programme is full-time, 60 ECTS credits, taught on campus. It is not a standalone degree but can be part of a bachelor's degree in political science or another subject. Student associations are open to students on the year.
