Over the past few decades, universities worldwide have initiated programs to cater to the evolving field of International Relations. This is because the world has become interconnected and the line between the global and local has blurred. The Centre for International Relations (CIR) at Islamic University of Science and Technology (IUST) has made one such attempt. The Centre offers Master's degrees in International Relations and Political Science. In addition to this, the Centre has also started a PhD program. The aim is to equip students with a broad interdisciplinary knowledge base to study international relations from the perspective of the Global South.
