The programme includes an interdisciplinary Concentration in Political Studies, with courses in Political Science, International Relations, Political Philosophy, Theories of Justice, Economics, Geopolitics, Public Policy, Interethnic Relations, Social Structures in the Gulf Countries, Contemporary History and Communication. It enables students to gain a thorough and rigorous understanding of Politics, Ethics and Social Phenomena through the perspective of Philosophy and the Social Sciences.
Graduates develop the critical thinking, research skills, and multilingual competencies to become leaders in the knowledge-based economy, as thinkers and problem-solvers. They succeed in careers in Public Administration, International Organizations, Governmental Agencies, Diplomacy, Strategy, Psychology, Education, Media, Communication, Consulting, Human Resources and Research.
The curriculum also offers access to numerous postgraduate programmes (masters) worldwide, in a variety of fields, including International Relations, Public Policy, Diplomacy, Law, Human Resources, Communication, Journalism, Psychology, Business Administration, Sociology and Philosophy.
This Double Bachelor provides students with a deep and comprehensive understanding of the functioning of contemporary societies and challenges them to think critically about key philosophical issues. The Philosophy curriculum highlights epistemological questions regarding the conditions of scientific objectivity and the ways in which the social sciences differ from the natural sciences. It explores moral and political issues, including classical topics such as justice, freedom and equality, and the theory of action (rational choice theory). It also emphasises theory of knowledge, metaphysics, and political philosophy. It develops analytical and critical thinking, as well as research, argumentation and assessment skills, and allows students to question the theoretical foundations of key philosophical issues in the contemporary world, with a special focus on the challenges of environmental change and the development of artificial intelligence and the new technologies.
The Sociology curriculum emphasises the link between sociological theory and empirical research. Students learn the qualitative and quantitative methodologies of the social sciences and work on social contemporary phenomena such as social stratification, migration, urbanisation, health sociology, socio-cultural inequalities and the question of tolerance, and the socio-political changes in the context of the globalised world.
A mandatory language course offers students the opportunity to add an extra language to their skills. These language choices include English, German, Italian, Chinese or Spanish. The programme faculty are all internationally renowned professors whose teaching methodology goes beyond the traditional forms of teaching to ensure a balanced and well-rounded learning experience. Personalised tutoring is also available for students to enjoy a more individual learning experience.
The curriculum follows the European ECTS system, and the degree is awarded by Sorbonne Université.
