If there is a word that best describes my overall experience in the MA Political Science program at CEU, it is this: outstanding.

Alumni Testimonials

Hi, my name is Koichi! I’m from Brazil and graduated from the 1-year MA program in Political Science at CEU in 2022. Today, I’m a PhD student at the University of Vienna, where I also work as a researcher studying coalitions and teach comparative politics.

Before CEU, I earned a BA in International Relations from UniCEUB in Brazil and an MA in Law from Soka University in Japan. After working for six years, I wanted to return to academia. The 1-year MA program at CEU offered the perfect opportunity to refresh my skills and re-enter the world of academic research.

Alumni Testimonials

Central European University (CEU), and its Political Science Department in particular, excel in both teaching and research while offering a truly international educational environment. During my time at CEU, most of my courses were taught by deeply knowledgeable professors who are well-recognized in their respective fields. The small class sizes and research-oriented assessments ensured a very intense yet highly rewarding learning experience.

I would say there are four reasons why someone should apply to the Political Science Department at CEU: academic rigor, amazing people, financial and professional support, and educational prestige.
