Diplomacy majors focus on the practical activities of the country's foreign exchanges, and mainly train diplomats or foreign-related activists with communication and negotiation skills. This major is highly applied and practical, and is closely related to international politics and international relations.

There are two aspects in the study of diplomacy: one is the theory and practice of general diplomacy, and the other is the foreign policy of specific countries. Theoretically, study the nature, objectives and types of diplomacy; In practice, I mainly study diplomatic means and skills, diplomatic etiquette and norms.

Main courses of study

The course of diplomacy is rather boring. In terms of professional courses, it is half English and half Chinese. Most courses are political, so good political science is an important prerequisite.

During my college years, my main courses were: diplomacy, theory of international relations, contemporary China diplomacy, introduction to international politics, history of international relations, contemporary international politics and multilateral diplomacy, international law and international organizations, foreign political system, religion and international politics, and negotiation.

In addition to mastering the basic knowledge of international relations, we should also learn basic diplomatic etiquette, and even the customs and habits of various countries.

employment rate

This major is relatively unpopular and the employment situation is very general. As for the future work, the ideal is to engage in foreign affairs diplomacy, policy research, publicity and other work in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, or engage in international news editing and editing in news organizations. But this is just an idealized state.

As far as people who have experienced it are concerned, most of the students work in some foreign companies and engage in some English-related work. After all, the school's professional courses are half English and half Chinese. Some students have also taken postgraduate exams in other directions. Finally, the rest of the students all took the civil servants or institutions.
