My Global Learning Coursework
Throughout my academic journey, I have engaged in coursework that has broadened my understanding of global politics, governance, and international relations. These courses have equipped me with the tools to critically analyze political systems, assess contemporary global challenges, and explore the dynamics of authoritarianism and democracy. Below are a few of the key courses that have shaped my global learning experience:

In this course, I examined the political systems of different countries, focusing on their structures, functions, and processes. Through comparative analysis, I developed a deeper understanding of how political institutions vary across regions and the factors influencing their stability and success. This course sharpened my analytical skills and reinforced the importance of context in political systems.
Authoritarians & Democrats
This course provided a critical examination of the dynamics between authoritarian and democratic regimes. By exploring historical and contemporary case studies, I gained insight into the factors that drive regime transitions, the challenges of maintaining democratic systems, and the political, social, and economic forces shaping governance. It reinforced my interest in understanding the balance between power, governance, and citizen participation.

I explored contemporary challenges like climate change, human rights, and terrorism, analyzing their impact on global diplomacy and the international order. This course honed my ability to assess international problems from multiple perspectives and consider practical solutions.

This course provided an in-depth look at the global challenges associated with refugee and migrant populations. I studied the political, economic, and humanitarian aspects of displacement, focusing on the causes, consequences, and responses to migration crises. Through case studies and global policies, I gained a comprehensive understanding of the international framework for addressing refugee protection and the complexities of migration in the 21st century.
