Our International Relations course explores global politics as a space where power and inequalities, such as those related to race, gender, and class, play a significant role. You'll learn how these factors shape interactions within and between societies.
What You'll Learn:
Key Concepts: Gain a deep understanding of international relations theories and concepts. Learn how to apply them to modern global issues like the global economy, development, governance, security, foreign policy, and inequality.
Diverse Perspectives: Study both traditional and modern approaches to global politics. Instead of just focusing on countries, you'll examine the role of non-state actors like international organisations, transnational corporations, social movements, and local communities.
Key Features:
Flexible Qualification: You can earn a Postgraduate Diploma or Certificate, depending on the credits you complete.
Research-Led Modules: Our modules address global challenges like poverty, inequality, development, gender inequality, and democracy, moving beyond traditional international relations topics.
Global & Local Connections: By studying everyday lives, you'll understand how global issues affect local communities and develop a sense of global responsibility.
Skills Development: Build the skills, knowledge, and values needed to contribute to a more just, peaceful, and sustainable world.
Expert Teaching & Opportunities: Learn from experts in the field and take advantage of study trips, guest speakers, and events organised by our research centres.
