“The years I spent here were crucial for my development, thanks to the knowledge gained through courses and practical activities. Coming to this department was the best decision I ever made. Today, I’m an intern at the Romanian Government and preparing for master’s admission. For all I’ve achieved and all that’s ahead, thank you, Political Science!” ❤️
“The most important thing the faculty contributes to is the student’s personal development — from building a work ethic to gaining skills for a career. That ‘critical thinking’ is the most valuable gain from these years.”
“I had a very good experience with the professors, who genuinely strive to educate you, prepare you for a potential career, not just make you ‘cram.’ The teaching staff is truly excellent, and that’s reflected in the courses, the teaching style, and the methods used to help students understand — not just memorize.”
“Being a student in this department was the best decision I could’ve made at the time. Throughout the years, I had the opportunity to work closely with most professors and even create an NGO for political and civic youth involvement. Being a political science student doesn’t just mean being a student — it’s a place where you can grow and follow your passion.”
“Being a student at FSPAC was a journey full of challenges and discoveries — a time when I learned not only academic lessons but also about myself: about passions, about how to turn dreams into reality, and how to apply them daily through what I chose to study.
The Master’s in International Development gave me valuable insights into the curriculum topics and allowed me to interact with professors and passionate people in the field who truly inspired me.”
“Studying Political Science in English was interactive and dynamic. The smaller groups made learning more hands-on.
The Master’s in International Development continued that journey, giving me global perspectives and new professional opportunities.
Looking back, I know this experience shaped my critical thinking and helped me grow both academically and personally.”
