Overview

Our unique International Relations and Global Politics program at The American University of Rome draws upon the extensive professional and academic expertise of our international faculty and our working partnerships with Rome and European governmental and non-governmental organizations.

Learning on location

The International Relations and Global Politics Program organizes field study trips to expose students to relevant countries facing specific challenges (e.g. Greece after the economic crisis); significant institutions (e.g. the World Trade Organization in Geneva); and influencing actors (e.g. OPEC in Vienna) to take students beyond simply theory and classroom lectures and into real-world practice, case studies, and hands-on experience of the impact that people and organizations make on the ground.
