NCFU is expanding cooperation with the Corvinus University of Budapest as the two partners are launching a joint Master’s degree program in International Relations, offering graduates two diplomas at the same time.

The cooperation agreement with the Hungarian partner was signed 5 years ago, and now the two institutions involve each other’s experts to deliver training to their respective students.

A year ago, the parties started their work on a joint Master’s degree program in International Relations, and they have already developed the curricula as well as agreed on the major organizational issues.

– For NCFU, this is a new area of studies whereas our partners from Hungary have accumulated great experience in the area, – Igor Kryuchkov (Head of Dept for Foreign History, Political Studies and International Relations) explained. – By joining our potentials we have developed a unique program, which will serve the best interest of Hungarian and Russian students.

The training will be free, while the students are to be paid monthly salaries and offered accommodation in the residence hall. One of the major conditions qualifying for admission implies a good command of English.
