International Relations is the study of the relationships between countries and governmental and non-governmental organizations.
IR operates as an inter-and multi-disciplinary program in which core and elective courses are drawn from various disciplines such as political science, history, modern languages and literature, sociology, anthropology, economics, geography, and environmental studies.
At Mount Allison University, the International Relations program is centred around political science, language, and economics courses.
The program provides students with a broad range of intellectual and critical skills for analyzing the interactions between political and economic systems, cultural norms, environmental dynamics, and power hierarchies.
In the first and second years, you'll take introductory courses in economics, political science, and international relations. In the third and fourth years, you will begin to specialize.
In addition to your core courses, you'll have the opportunity to choose two streams of study from the following disciplines:
