The Bachelor of Arts in China Studies & International Organizations and Global Governance (IOGG) Double Major Programme (DMP) enables students to complete two complementary majors within the same normative study period as a regular four-year bachelor’s degree programme. By combining China Studies with IOGG, the DMP provides students with interdisciplinary training with a sharp focus on China-related studies, politics, and public administration.
As China’s global influence continues to grow, there is a growing demand for talents with deep knowledge of China and international relations. The DMP is designed to meet this need by combining the strengths of China Studies and IOGG. Students develop a solid understanding of China’s history, culture, society, and political development while acquiring analytical tools for understanding internationalorganizations, public policy, and global governance. Graduates will be well-positioned to serve as bridges between China and the wider world in a variety of professional settings.
