Career opportunities and career prospects
Career opportunities and career prospects
The Master's degree is attended by both full-time students and students already integrated into professional life, and in the latter case, it is still to be taken into account that not all professional activities fall within the scope of the course themes. The previous findings point to the existence of some heterogeneity with regard to the reasons that preside over the choice of the Master's degree and the use that the objectives of the Master's degree include. In fact, the professional outputs are numerous, since the Master's degree is directed to the most diverse sectors of social life. Thus, masters in political science-citizenship and governance may be able to perform functions in central, regional and local government bodies, political parties, companies, trade unions, associations, international organizations and development and cooperation agents.
