For Professor Hadjiyannis it is always a pleasure to hear from students wishing to pursue, and to answer inquiries about, the International Relations (IR) major at SSU. Should you join us soon, you will find our university an exciting place to be, our major rigorous and current, and your fellow majors a lively and interesting group. More, the major offers many national and local internship opportunities, short travel/study abroad courses, study for a semester at SSU's sister institutions abroad, an IR student club, and a Center for International Program and Activities (CIPA) which support the major in significant ways.
