Psychology of Global Mobility, Inclusion and Diversity in Society - Master of Erasmus Mundus

Recent societal challenges such as the global migration crisis, the war in Ukraine, or the rise of political extremism and increased social impacts of climate change call for experts to tackle the issues of mobility (migration and displacement of populations), inclusion and diversity. In Europe and across the globe, well-trained specialists in intergroup relations and cultural diversity are needed to prevent marginalisation, conflict and violence and to promote inclusion, social equality and collaboration. We also need to understand how to support behavioural change so that people can more successfully engage with the global sustainability challenges. Global-MINDS is a timely master programme that responds to these needs by providing a training in psychology and intercultural skills – assets that are indispensable in today’s global knowledge economy and multicultural working environments.

In Year 1, the Global-MINDS program consists of obligatory study periods in at least two universities, depending on the thematic path chosen by the student:

• Path A. Culture & Diversity (ISCTE-IUL & the University of Limerick)
• Path B. Mobility & Society (SWPS University & the University of Oslo)
• Path C. Inclusion & Health (SWPS University & the University of Limerick)

In Year 2, students complete an obligatory internship in one of our partner organizations and deliver a Master’s Thesis in one of the Partner Universities.
