MRID is essentially an academic and interdisciplinary programme lasting two years over four semesters. Academically, MRID has a mainly theoretical-conceptual focus and student-centred research skills. The theoretical-conceptual dimension consists of a critical approach to theories and practices of international relations and development in general, and particularly in Mozambique. The research dimension focuses on independent study skills aimed at producing academic knowledge that can also be applied in policy analysis, formulation and implementation in both the public and private sectors. Although academically focused, MRID values policy-oriented research focused on concrete problems to produce ideas and agents of transformation and development. In terms of interdisciplinarity, MRID recognises the practical and theoretical interconnection between international relations and development.
Admission to MRID follows administrative and academic-pedagogical criteria based on the Higher Education Law and UJC internal and academic regulations. Administrative admission occurs through public competition announced annually through admission notices. The process includes document review and an interview. Academic requirements include holding or having completed a bachelor degree, particularly in International Relations and Diplomacy, Economics, or Development Studies. Graduates from other areas may be admitted subject to approval in the document review and attendance of a reorientation course defined by specific regulation.
The duration of MRID is two years. This is the standard timeframe for academic master programmes established under Mozambican higher education law. Structurally, the two years are divided into four semesters. The first three are teaching semesters, while the fourth is reserved for research, writing and defence of the master dissertation.
The MRID graduate is able to explain creatively and critically issues of international relations and development in general and particularly in Mozambique. More specifically, graduates can understand international relations and development from a theoretical perspective, critically reflect on contemporary economic, political and social challenges, analyse patterns and trends, design and implement policies and development projects, and conduct academic research aimed at solving concrete problems.
