International Affairs and Diplomatic Practice
Seton Hall’s School of Diplomacy and International Relations has partnered with the United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR) in Geneva to offer this Online Executive Master of Science in International Affairs
and Diplomatic Practice program. The degree is designed for mid-career professionals
who seek to develop additional skills or credentials to move ahead in their careers.
Practitioners will explore contemporary diplomacy against the changing nature of world
politics and investigate the complexities of relationships between different countries.

management and monitoring and evaluation, while developing a functional and/or regional
specialty.
