Master of Science in Globalization
Are you interested in gaining a profound understanding of the dynamics and effects of globalisation within an interdisciplinary framework? Would you like to study global value chains and manufacturing processes? And understand the political and cultural consequences of increasing global inter-connectedness?
As students of this two-year's Master's programme, you will choose between two specialisations: Global Production Management or Global Politics and Culture . You will explore the interrelations between the economic, technological, cultural, social and political dimensions of globalisation. You will also gain practical experience through a work placement in a global corporation or institution outside Norway.
The aim of the programme is to provide you with a general understanding of the forms and consequences of the processes of globalisation, combined with an in-depth knowledge of one of the two fields of specialisation.
The course will investigate Globalization as a multi-dimensional phenomenon with a focus on its implications for civil society, state power, changing patterns of national culture and global markets and technologies.
