Introduction

This program is designed for those who wish to be equipped with theories, practical knowledge and analytical skills to understand critical world issues and the way they develop. The themes underlying the curriculum embrace interdisciplinary coherence (social sciences and foreign languages).

In view of the fact that Cambodia has experienced fast paced development and become increasingly regionally and globally integrated, yet remains in need of a broader perspective and a rational world view, the Department of International Studies (DIS) undertakes the important mission to produce a pool of intellectually matured graduates with expertise in international studies.

International Studies is a multidisciplinary program which focuses on global issues and development as well as the complex relationship between societies and governments that shape the world we live in. The focal themes include political science, international economic development, foreign relations, and international cultural histories. DIS draws on a broad range of recognized Cambodian experts at the Royal University of Phnom Penh who see the need for Cambodia to have future leaders who are well-equipped with analytical skills and knowledge of the global world.
