Global citizens and problem-solvers are in demand in today’s world. A master's in international affairs from the University of West Florida will provide students with the training they need to confront the challenges of an increasingly globalized world.

Globalization has profoundly altered political, socioeconomic and cultural forces around the world. It is no longer possible to understand the most pressing problems or opportunities through only a local or even national frame.

At UWF, students will tackle real-world policy problems and learn to apply theoretical frameworks for systematic analysis, working together in a small, interactive classroom environment that fosters collaborative learning. These skills and experiences will equip them to work in a global environment.
