Journalism + International Relations
In a world without borders, the demand for journalists with experience in international scenarios and knowledge of foreign policy is growing. The double degree in Journalism and International Relations is a unique opportunity to combine the profession of journalist with that of expert in international relations.
The double degree allows our students to improve skills and future employability, since training in several disciplines generates a more complete and effective profile for the labor market.
Thanks to our agreements with other universities, students can complete an academic year in Holland, Brazil, Australia and Japan, among others.
