Dual Degree: Political Science (B.A.) and International Human Rights Law and Justice (M.A.)
Overview Program
The Law Department also offers a dual degree that combines a BA in Political Science and an MA in International Human Rights Law and Justice. This dual degree creates a synergy between the existing BA in Political Science and MA in IHRLJ. It enables good students to prepare for a postgraduate degree while completing the requirements for the BA in Political Science. The MA degree provides students with the necessary expertise in international human rights law and justice with the intellectual, analytical, and communication tools needed to intervene critically and effectively in the global policy debates confronting their societies as policymakers, academics, activists, and international civil servants.
