International Relations (Taught)

The socio-political challenges facing us are increasingly international. That means there’s an ever-growing need for problem-solvers that can think globally.

Led by internationally recognised academics, our International Relations master’s course will give you the tools to interrogate global politics and better understand global issues like foreign policy, environmental politics and migration.

Through mandatory course units, you’ll be introduced to a range of orthodox and critical research approaches, while developing your skills as a researcher.

You’ll also be able to tailor the course to fit your interests, with optional units available covering key topics in international relations such as:

• Governing in an Unjust World: Justice and International Relations

• Global Ethics

• European Union Foreign Policy

• Critical Environmental Politics

• The Arab Uprisings and Revolutionary State Formation

Throughout the course you’ll develop skills in critical inquiry, research design, creative thinking and problem-solving. At the point of completion, you’ll be well placed to a career in research, policy, charity and a great number of other fields.
