Course content and

The course focuses on a specialized theme in international
political economy. It introduces students to the theme and to
advanced theories and methods of relevance for analyzing
specialized problems within the theme. Based on this and with
faculty supervision students develop independently their own
research question and carry out the ensuing analysis using relevant
theories, methods, and data.
The theme is decided by the Study Board and announced by the Board
by the end of October. The theme can change from year to year and
the Board can offer more than one theme in a year.
