The Pedro School of International Affairs

international-flag1

I spent two years of my life, along with tens of thousands of dollars earning a Master of Arts in International Administration from the University of Miami. It’s basically a professional degree in international affairs or international relations. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed my time there and learned a lot. But nowadays, you can obtain a world class education online, even one in international affairs, for free. Notice I said education and not a degree. At this time, you can’t yet earn the entire international affairs degree online for free, but you can certainly take classes. And if you wish to pay a little bit of money per class (comparatively), your classes can be “verified”. I put that in quotation marks because it doesn’t really mean anything yet, but maybe it will one day.

If you love International Relations/International Affairs like I do, you’re going to love this. I’m going to teach you how to earn an a world class International Affairs/Relations education for free, from the comfort of your home.

These are the curricula for a few universities that are consistently ranked among the best international affairs/relations schools in the world.

Going through these classes and taking them seriously means that you’ll acquire all the knowledge that a student gains throughout the course of a world class International Affairs/Relations program. You can also do it on your own time, from anywhere in the world, and for free.

Is it equivalent to a traditional degree? No, it’s not. You’ll lose out on a plethora of free workshops, seminars, and bootcamps that graduate programs offer. You’ll miss out on networking opportunities, campus events, and the ability to build relationships with faculty and staff. Also, you won’t be able to claim a degree from any one of these schools. You might have the knowledge, but not the paper.

Still, for those who have college degrees or even graduate degrees, the knowledge is enough to take the next jump in your career.

I would love to hear bout your experiences with these free classes.
