M.A. in International Affairs

M.A. Graduate Program in International Affairs

Marquette University offers one of the top M.A. programs in International Affairs in the United States. The program is at the same time rigorous and flexible, and it provides a strong foundation for further graduate or law study, as well as for careers in government or in non-governmental organizations which require an understanding of international politics and political economy.


Core Seminars and Research Seminars

Students are required to take two types of graduate seminars – core seminars and research seminars – although students also have ability to take upper level undergraduate courses in the Department of Political Science for graduate credit, “cognate” courses outside the department, and independent study courses designed by student and the supervising professor.
