Political Science and Labour Studies

Students interested in pursuing a degree in Political Science should consider the possibility of pursuing a co-major degree in Political Science and Labour Studies

The politics of labour, labour law, relations between political parties and unions, labour-environmental alliances, the impact of globalization on workers, theories of the labour movement, and labour relations in the public sector are some of the issues that stimulate teaching and research in Labour Studies.
