Master Degree Program in International Affairs

The Master Degree Program in International Affairs at Wenzao Ursuline University of Languages sits within the broader field of international relations and global affairs, an area of study that examines how states, international organizations, businesses, and civil society actors interact across borders. Students in a program of this kind typically engage with subjects such as international relations theory, foreign policy analysis, international law, global political economy, diplomacy, and regional studies covering areas such as East Asia, Europe, and the Americas. Coursework often blends historical and theoretical perspectives with contemporary case studies on trade disputes, security cooperation, human rights, and multilateral negotiation. Because the program is offered in English, it draws students who want to build proficiency in international communication alongside subject expertise, and it is well suited to those planning careers that require cross-cultural fluency. Graduates of international affairs programs commonly pursue careers in diplomatic services, international organizations, non-governmental organizations, government ministries, think tanks, and multinational corporations. Others move into journalism, international education, or further academic research at the doctoral level. The analytical and communication skills developed through the study of international affairs, including policy writing, negotiation, and comparative analysis, are transferable across many sectors that operate in a globalized environment. Located in Southern Taiwan, Wenzao Ursuline University of Languages offers this master's degree program to students in Taiwan, a country with a strong presence in Asian trade and diplomatic networks, making it a relevant setting for the study of international affairs and cross-border cooperation.
