Field of Study:
€17,900/Yr
- The MA Programme in Development Studies is organized into five Majors and an MA track in Migration and Diversity
- Students must select one of these when they apply to the MA programme.
- The Majors form an important part of the study programme. The courses are closely related and are designed to give students deeper insight and a higher level of competence in their field of study. Students write their research papers under the guidance of staff with relevant expertise.
- The teaching offerings are attuned to the diverse backgrounds of ISS students. All students receive thorough academic counselling at the beginning of the programme to help them determine their study paths. The counselling, which is given by the convenor of each Major, provides information about the compulsory and optional courses, in particular about the foundation, research techniques and major courses.
- Students may take voluntary remedial courses to make up for a deficiency or weak background knowledge.
- After the Christmas break, students take courses to further deepen their study of a theme or element of the Major or to focus on a topic not exclusively related to their field of study.
