Interdisciplinary Foundations of Political Science

Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) – 2 field degree program - Minor Field


One degree program – two diplomas. Take the Bachelor and Master of Arts in Political Science at two renowned institutions – the University of Freiburg in Germany and the Institut d’Etudes Politiques (IEP) in France. You will receive a sound academic education with practical phases. Experience two ways of life and two universities.

Taking an interdisciplinary approach, the career-oriented binational degree program in Applied Political Science conveys the principles of political science.

This bachelor’s program is organized jointly by the University of Freiburg and the Institut d’Etudes Politiques (IEP) in Aix-en-Provence. The goal of the program is to apply the fundamental knowledge of other disciplines to political scientific analysis. The instructional content necessary for this is taken from the fields of history, law, and economics. The goal is to provide students with the knowledge and abilities necessary for engagement with the normative foundations of political processes and decisions and for critical analysis of the functional logic of political institutions, processes, and systems.

Please note:
From the summer semester 2020 on there may be deviations from individual regulations of the admission regulations, selection and entrance examination regulations as well as the study and examination regulations from the Corona Statutes [de].
Disclaimer
The versions of statutes with relevance to teaching and learning provided on this page by the Department of Legal Affairs (in particular admission and selection regulations as well as subject and examination regulations) are primarily for information purposes. This means that all amendments subsequently agreed upon by the University Senate have been integrated into the respective text of the original statutes; in the case of the examination regulations for bachelor's and master's degree programmes, this generally relates to extracts of the respective examination regulations (framework examination regulations, subject-specific provisions, and appendices).
The greatest care has been taken in writing these versions. Nevertheless, it cannot be entirely ruled out that errors may have occurred. Consequently, it is solely the officially announced statutes and statute amendments that are legally binding, i.e. as published in the Amtlichen Bekanntmachungen der Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg im Breisgau [de] or, up to the year 2000, in the official gazette of the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of Science, Research and the Arts.
