I applied to the MA IRSS. I am a bit concerned about the dissertation. When I did my MSc in mathematics, my thesis supervisor met me for 1 hour per week. I doubt O.P. Jindal can provide that level of academic support in a programme of this type.

So besides a dissertation, what is the other option at the end of the program ?
Capstone? ... comprehensive exam?

Would this degree be accepted by private companies that state "advanced degree" as a requirement? The International Relations degree looks super interesting. But not worth pursuing if it wouldn't be acceptable to use on LinkedIn and applications.
We are all on the same side here, trying to better our lives....so let's get along and help each other out.
Learn a trade. Gain technical skills. Make money, then use this money to get a degree...if you have the desire.

Well it is a masters, so if they require a masters this would check the box. If they want a doctorate then no.
