This Master's degree focuses on diplomatic practice and the use of theoretical knowledge, rather than the advancement of academic knowledge for its own sake. The degree is the preferred route to pursue a career within governmental bodies, NGOs and international organizations. Thanks to its low tuition and institutional relationships, it is of special interest to European and African students.

Euclid's MDIA is customizable, with elective courses focusing on: European affairs Small islands issues Inter-ethnic and inter-religious relations E-government Sustainable development Non-governmental organizations This degree program is distance-based only and requires fluency in the English language.
