Overview
The Collaborative Master of Arts/Master of Science in International Relations program engages students with a strong interest in interdisciplinary studies who intend to pursue careers in business, government, international organizations, non-governmental organizations, or academia. The program combines the approaches and perspectives of a variety of disciplines to make sense of a rapidly changing world, and offers students the flexibility to pursue their own particular interests.
The graduate programs listed above participate in the collaborative program. Students who wish to enrol in the collaborative program must apply to and be admitted to both the collaborative program and a degree program in one of the collaborating departments. Following successful completion of the program requirements, students receive the master’s degree in their home department, with a transcript notation indicating completion of the Collaborative Program in International Relations.
Students in the Collaborative Program in International Relations may be interested in the Combined JD/MA in Political Science and Law program – see the Political Science entry in this calendar for further information.
