Program Description

International and Diplomatic Studies (IDS) is a two-year (four-semester) full-time master’s program taught in English at the University of Economics, Prague, Czech Republic (VŠE).

The program covers the fields of international politics, international economy, international law, comparative politics, diplomatic history, as well as diplomatic theory and practice. A strong emphasis is placed on issues regarding the European Union, yet the program includes a variety of optional courses on comparative politics and international relations in other parts of the world, too.

As part of the program, students in their 3rd semester are sent for a mandatory semester abroad to be hosted by a partner university (France, Germany, Mexico, Korea, Poland, Turkey, etc.). Students do not pay extra on top of their regular tuition fee for this semester. Students also receive partial financial assistance for living expenses while at a partner university.
