Bachelor Political Science and International Relations

The graduate student in Political Science acquires skills that equip them with a solid theoretical and practical preparation for the wide range of vocational opportunities that the rediscovery of the political-democratic-party system after the 25th of April of 1974, necessarily bears in the contemporary Portuguese society and the "Lusophone Space". The graduate student acquires general skills concerning the basic essential knowledge pertaining to the functioning of Public Institutions and the different groups that participate in the running of the same, as well as in understanding the attitudes and behaviours of citizens. The graduate student in Political Science and International Relations is a professional who, individually or as part of a team, is able to observe, characterize and evaluate the components that define certain socio-political contexts and intervene, directly or indirectly, in their modification. In more formal contexts, the graduate student in Political Science can be included in administrative or management bodies at national, regional, local and international level (in terms of Europe and the Lusophone Space).
