What it is

The first year covers microeconomics, contemporary history, sociology, political philosophy, public law, statistics and mathematical analysis, plus an AI literacy and coding lab; the second adds macroeconomics, international relations, political science, the history of political thought, social research methods and EU and international law. In year three you pick a concentration in Artificial Intelligence, Sustainability or Fundamental Rights. Teaching includes data analysis workshops, seminars, internships and study abroad, with double degrees with Victoria University of Wellington and Sciences Po Bordeaux. Graduates move into international organisations, government, think tanks, NGOs and companies, or on to a master's.

What you need

  • IB Diploma or predicted grades of 36/45 or more give direct admission (EU/Schengen route). Below that, sit the online Luiss Test (SAT-style: logic, problem-solving, maths).
