du Global
[International and Global Relations]) at Sciences Po Strasbourg, you are in for a demanding, multi-disciplinary course that will prepare you for the world of work. This two-year programme of excellence, taught mainly in French and English, aims to meet one of the 21st century’s major challenges in higher education: to train high-potential, international managers and researchers who are both painstaking and bold, multi-lingual and mobile, and able to take a holistic view of the world in all its complexity.
