The education of people who have to live and work in an increasingly interconnected and changing world has to be cross-disciplinary, open and flexible, so that they can help explain and solve the challenges that arise and turn them into possibilities.

The Bachelor's Degree Global Studies is a cross-disciplinary education course for students from all over the world looking to work from an international perspective.In a context of structural changes, we need specialists with a global outlook who can accompany political decisions and analyse the role of increasingly interconnected citizens.The challenges posed by climatic change, the rise in migration and the shortage of resources, political and economic programmes implemented on a local, national or regional scale, as well as the determining role of technology and the use of information to communicate these phenomena, exemplify the complexity of today’s world.

The Bachelor's degree in Global Studies has an innovative methodology.The programme will equip students for critical analysis and the generation of proposals, advice and solutions to problems relating to global environments.
