My thesis qualitatively addresses the questions of how women attain positions at the UN and how they contribute to the UN despite long standing gender barriers. This research is situated in the political science field of International Governmental Organizations and incorporates research on bureaucratic representation, gender barriers, and political activities. Course selection: In this Master's program, I focus on the politics of international development, public policy, peace and security, and the role gender plays across these spheres.I chose a program in Gender, Politics, and International Relations as a complementary area of study to electrical engineering to give me broach and more nuanced understanding on globalized challenges in an international career. Impactful global leadership and good global change is at the intersection of diverse fields of expertise. Show less
