Modern Inter-Cultural Studies Course

In this Course, students will, apropos to this age of globalization and inter-connectedness, make themselves familiar with the social conditions of different parts of the world and the unique historical backgrounds and diverse local and regional characteristics of these areas. By doing so, our graduates will be able to contribute to the realization of symbiotic and harmonious societies that establish legal and social systems that take into consideration the human rights of each individual from a perspective of diversity.
