The Master's degree course gains its specific profile from an integrated scientific perspective, i.e.

      - the combination of different theoretical and methodological approaches in political science,
      - the linking of international and transnational political perspectives with internal structural conflicts, democratic problems and
      transformation prospects of modern societies,
      - the inclusion of social and economic problem constellations in the orientation of the Political Science degree programme and
      - the systematic integration of gender perspectives.

      The insight into the connections between social and political life should provide you with qualifications that open up the possibility of working in different professional fields of political science or that qualify you for research or PhD studies.

      Research focuses:
      The Master's degree programme in Political Science offers you the opportunity to study the areas of "International and Transnational Politics", "Social Structural Conflicts and Conflict Dynamics" as well as "Democracy Theory, Democracy Research and Critical Domination Research" with a focus on "Analysis and Comparison in and of World Regions", "Gender Research" or "Political Economics".
