Faculty and following the 4+1+3 design, with the first cycle lasting for 4 (four years), that is, 8 (eight semesters), and the second one for 1 (one) year, that is, 2 (two) semesters. The latter figure refers to the third cycle (doctoral studies), to be launched soon.<\/p><p>With regard to the teaching process, there are following forms applied: regular lectures and practical exercises. Upon completion of the first cycle, students can choose between two study courses at the second cycle: Political Science Studies and International Studies, each featuring five mandatory subjects and one elective, as well as the final paper, on the basis of which candidates\u00a0 choose their field of expertise.<\/p><p>Students at this study programme are obliged to actively participate in lecture and exercise classes, to submit essays, seminar papers, and research projects, as well as to give presentations and be engaged in other academic activities, for which they are awarded points. At the beginning of a semester, the professor in charge of the subject introduces topics and issues, methodology and forms of work, and credits awarded to particular activities that make up of the overall subject workload. The passing grades range from 6 to 10 in a 5-10 grading system, the former being the lowest and the latter the highest grades. With regard to the aforementioned, the grades of 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 are awarded for the respective point ranges: 51-60, 61-70, 71-80, 81-90, and 91-100. The grade of 5, marking a failed exam, is awarded for scores below 51. \u00a0<\/p><p>The second-cycle studies last for 2 (two) semesters. In order for an MA in Political Science Studies or an MA in International Studies to be acquired, candidates are required to complete the 60-ECTS workload, to pass all the exams, and to publicly defend their master\u2019s thesis.<\/p><p>A researh paper in the field of public policies is mandatory over the course of the studies.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MA in Political Science NAME AND GOALS OF THE PROGRAMME Name of the Programme:\u00a0Graduate academic studies of Political Science and International Relations Students can choose one of two course routes:\u00a0Political Science or International Studies The concept of the studies has been harmonised with the highest European and global academic standards in terms of providing qualifications in the field of political science and international studies.
