Students build their own intellectual and communications skills, develop strong, persuasive writing skills, and hone their ability to formulate, analyze and discuss ideas. Graduates of the programme are well prepared to begin their careers in business, civil service or academia, or to continue their education by pursuing a master’s degree in Russia or internationally.
Professional competencies of the graduates of the program are based not only in the field of international relations but also intersect with other professional spheres (depending on course selection and specialization) providing set of skills and knowledge to work in government apparatus, corporate sector, analytical and research structures or educational institutions.
By the end of the fourth year students master at the professional level at least two foreign languages, including negotiation and presentation skills, ethics of business correspondence, as well as analytical skills with the application of advanced methods of data analysis in international relations and other related fields of study.

In the general curriculum bloc of subjects students study classical disciplines of the international relations related to history, philosophy, sociology, political science and basics of economic theory.
From the second year of studying begins the main bloc of subjects which covers the western approach to studying international relations. This allows a student to gain more profound and systemic knowledge of the discipline for the future analytical work.
To expand the range of their knowledge and skills in areas related to international relations students choose one of two specializations that focus on global economic and business processes, or strategic communications. The program also provides elective courses that give students an opportunity to evaluate in a more detailed way such aspects of international relations as international security, world economy and diplomacy.
One of the core aspects of the program is the development of professional and academic aspects of the English language as well as the second foreign language. Students are offered to choose from European (French, German, Italian, Spanish) or Asian (Chinese, Arabic, Korean, Japanese) languages. Foreign language courses cover not only the linguistic aspects but also regional including economy, culture and politics of the country/region of language use studied.
The Practice block provides for the acquisition of the skills of research activity through writing and presenting course papers; and service, research or occupational projects provided by the university. During the fourth year students are obliged to hold an internship in major-oriented analytical centers/government apparatus/large media/commercial structures.
