Master of International Relations (Double Masters with Shanghai Jiao Tong University)

Offering a truly international perspective, this program immerses you in two cultures (with one full year in Australia and another in China). It combines the Master of International Relations at Monash with the Master of Arts in Chinese Politics and Economy from Shanghai Jiao Tong University.

Exploring the security, ethical, legal, and economic dimensions of international relations, you will be prepared to deal critically and analytically with questions of global justice, war, peace, social movements, and inter-state relations.

You will examine key issues in foreign policy, world order, crisis management, and terrorism, as well as gender, development, migration, and governance aspects of global politics.

Offered across four specializations; general studies in international relations, governance and security, political violence and counter-terrorism, and international diplomacy and trade, the Master of International Relations component of this double degree course will help you make sense of the complexity of global politics and economics.  You will develop the analytical perspectives and skills necessary to see the "bigger picture" as well as detailed aspects of specific issues.  You will also gain a solid intellectual grounding in key debates, historical events, and political institutions.
