Escuela de Política, Gobierno y Relaciones Internacionales

The School of Government, International Relations and Politics is an academic area within Austral University´s Law School. It aims to bridge the knowledge generated by each of the University’s academic units and the specific public management needs of our country and the Latin American region.

The School also aims to build strategic partnerships with institutions at all levels of government and civil society based on three key objectives: fostering institutional quality, improving management, and promoting Argentina’s regional and global integration. These goals guide all the research, teaching and training in the School of Government.

The School seeks to contribute to the training of stateswomen and statesmen who have in depth knowledge of governmental organization and functions, and who have a strong personal and ethical commitment to the dignity of every human being and the common good in a democratic society.
