Магистр по промышленным и трудовым отношениям

In a fast-changing environment (political, economic, social, cultural, technological) in which governments, workers’ organizations employers and business membership organizations have to adapt their strategies continuously, a better understanding of the contemporary trends and challenges of different industrial and employment relations in the world is a compelling need.

To provide labour relations practitioners the best learning environment and the opportunity to engage in deep discussions related to Industrial and Employment Relations the International Training Centre of the International Labour Organization (ITCILO), in partnership with the University of Turin, Italy, is offering a Master in Industrial and Employment Relations. It includes a distance-learning phase with synchronous activities (weekly live Webinars), and an optional residential phase at the ITCILO campus in Turin, Italy, to deep dive into our learning centre, followed by a second distance-learning phase for the preparation of the Master’s thesis.

The online learning journey allows students to engage continuously with a global faculty coming from a wide range of institutions, from the ILO to universities, training and research institutions around the world. The Master also provides an opportunity to live a learning experience with practitioners and students coming from all the regions of the world.

The Master in Industrial and Employment Relations aims to develop specialized multidisciplinary knowledge in the field of industrial and employment relations from a comparative viewpoint. It will provide students with a deep theoretical and practical understanding of industrial and employment relations systems in the world, by looking into recent changes and trends.

The Master’s programme combines the sound academic background of the University of Turin with the ITCILO’s international training experience. An international approach has been applied to the content, the methodology as well as the composition of the faculty.

Since 1991, the International Training Centre of the ILO has offered postgraduate learning opportunities in disciplines of interest to an international audience of recent graduates and career professionals.
