Introduction
Innovations in modern communication and transportation have increased and intensified relations among countries, international institutions, and individuals.
Today, we encounter numerous problems related to the process of globalization and the development of international relations. The Department of International Relations was established to develop experts in their fields who can solve these problems.
In today's world, new discoveries and innovations are being introduced all the time, and the ability to think independently and creatively is essential. The Department of International Relations trains students to think, to do research and to express their thoughts with the self-confidence necessary to compete in an expanding global market.
In addition to educating individuals for careers in Foreign Affairs, some students will be trained as foreign relations advisors to the business sector. Our program is designed to provide experts in critical areas such as international institutions, international correspondence, and international communication procedures.
