Good morning!
I am writing this thread to ask some advices from more experienced people (QS/THE.. rankings seem very confusing to me) about where to pursue a BSc in Political Science / IR in Europe. I'll briefly explain my situation. I have 10L/10 avg. marks (100%) in Italy, and I also have some very strong extracurriculars. Fact is, I cannot attend any university in the US or in UK as an undergrad for financial matters (they’re really expensive indeed). Therefore, I will have to study in Europe. I would like to get a PhD in the field of IR in future and so I am searching for some place known to be good for research. I am mainly interested in IR regarding China and the West. Furthermore, I'd like to ask you if, in your opinion, it would be possible to directly attend a PhD in the US after a BSc in Europe as I haven't found much about that possibility.
Thank you!!
