An Intergovernmental Organization with a University Charter, offering World-Class and Affordable MBA Programs
EUCLID’s online Master in Sustainable Development and Diplomacy is based on EUCLID’s MBA/SD which was ranked #1 in 2016 for a good reason: it is offered by an international intergovernmental organization with a university mandate and specialized expertise in sustainable development. Historically, EUCLID grew out of the cooperation between universities and the International Organization for Sustainable Development (IOSD) which was the original SD international organization and which is now a EUCLID affiliated institute.
It is therefore only master’s degree program in sustainable development and diplomacy organized by an international intergovernmental organization and officially used by senior civil servants over 4 continents. It is also highly relevant to managers and executives working for multinational companies.
EUCLID’s MSDD offers a comprehensive graduate study of the most relevant topics, including economic development, UN SD goals, international law, ecological economics, etc. Graduates can expect to complete the program transformed and enhanced in their ability to make a difference in global sustainability.
This online master’s degree program blends two streams of knowledge: sustainable economic development and international governance. Entrance into the program presupposed a good command of economics.
The curriculum provides a progression of courses covering ecological economics (with case studies), sustainable development studies, and international affairs related to SD.
This program focuses on applicable professional knowledge and skills rather than the advancement of academic knowledge for its own sake. Also, sustainable economic development is considered from a Global South angle as well as from major Western/OECD sources.
This is a program that is also used by civil servants working for EUCLID Participating States and can be considered an excellent route to pursue a career within governmental bodies, NGOs, global corporations and international organizations.
Within certain parameters, the curriculum is customizable, with elective courses focusing on:
