The 3-year first-cycle degree full-time programme consists of six semesters (terms) and over 20 courses plus dissertation seminar aimed at thesis preparation and individual focus. All units are taught in English by experienced American and European academic teachers.

The UPIR graduate should have analytical capacities, to understand local problems in a global perspective, as well as skills in communication, negotiation and persuasion. The graduate should be fluent in foreign language (level B2 according to the Common European Framework of Reference) and be able to use the advanced vocabulary in international relations topic. He/she should be qualified to work in:
• central and local administration as mid-level policy officer or junior expert
• international organizations or local institutions having international collaboration
• enterprises present in international markets.
Interdisciplinary character of studies should as well enable the graduate to work in institutions that are not related to international relations.
