International Security and Policy (Taught)

You should have a 2:1 honours degree (or international equivalent) in a relevant subject area. This is typically a social sciences or humanities discipline, such as political science and international relations, international security studies, international political economy, or sociology. Similar subjects will also be considered.

We also welcome applicants with relevant professional experience who can demonstrate postgraduate-level study skills.

If you have a 2:2 honours degree (or international equivalent) in a relevant subject, or a 2:1 honours degree in a non-social sciences or humanities subject, you should highlight any relevant professional experience in your application.

Applicants without a relevant degree, or who do not meet the stated academic requirements, may still be considered if they can demonstrate significant professional experience.

As part of your application, you will need to answer personal statement questions and provide two references.

Depending on your previous qualifications, you may also need to submit a CV. You must provide a copy (or copies) of your official academic transcript(s), showing the subjects studied and marks obtained. If you have already completed your degree, copies of your official degree certificate will also be required. Applicants with academic documents issued in a language other than English, will need to submit both the original and official translation of their documents.
