About the Program

Research in the M.Sc. program in Policy Analytics in Global Issues: At the intersection of Political Science and Industrial Engineering departments, the program aims to understand current problems on a global scale and to create decision support in the solution of these problems. Using the background of the Department of Political Science, the program aims to analyze global problems by focusing on the complex political power relations. In the program, students who develop their knowledge of simulation and probability/statistics through modeling and optimization will have the competence to produce socio-technical solutions to global problems and to use different methods in decision-making processes. Students who graduate from this program will specialize in international migration, political economy, global environmental problems and policies, conflict and political resolution, and will acquire ability to support the decision-making processes of states, civil society and organizations.
