What it is

Development, international relations and global change from an interdisciplinary social-science angle, with a fourth semester on exchange and final-semester fieldwork with partner universities in developing countries.

What you need

The IB Diploma meets the entry requirement, and English at any grade that passes, SL or HL, covers English. The two music degrees add an entrance exam.
