X-Culture Awards Ceremony for 22 Master's Degree Students in International Relations, (LM-52)

In the first semester, 22 students from the Master's Degree program in International Relations (LM-52) participated in the X-Culture program, an international initiative lasting two months. This project, coordinated by the University of North Carolina (USA), provides valuable insights into international trade practices. The Department of Political Science, Communication, and International Relations has been involved in this partnership for 13 years, under the leadership of Professor Ernesto Tavoletti, who teaches International Marketing at UniMC. On April 30, 2025, a ceremony was held in the Aula Magna of the Department of Political Science, Communication, and International Relations to award certificates to the 22 students in the Master’s degree program in International Relations. These students demonstrated exceptional performance in the innovative "X-Culture Global Collaboration Course". The certificates were presented by Professor Ernesto Tavoletti, Chair of the Master’s degree program in International Relations (LM-52), who spearheaded the initiative and supervised the students’ preparatory activities. During the X-Culture project, students collaborated in international virtual teams with peers from 135 universities worldwide, focusing on business and international trade projects for companies operating in global markets. The outstanding efforts of the students throughout various project editions led to Professor Ernesto Tavoletti being recognized as one of the top Educators of 2024 by X-Culture. The project will culminate at a final symposium in Vaasa, Finland, from August 3 to August 9, 2025.
