Research/PhD

Leiden’s Institutes of Political Science and Public Administration encompass a wide range of research interests, spanning subjects such as crisis and security management, political behaviour, international administration, political philosophy, public policy, lobbying and media, national politics and international relations.
As a graduate student, you can play a key role in the Institutes, engaging in collaborative projects with faculty members. Such activities have led to high numbers of publications authored and co-authored by graduate students in recent years.
The quality of both Institutes’ research and teaching is continuously evaluated by means of both internal and external reports.
