International relations examine the role of states, international alliances, non-governmental organisations and multinational companies in an increasingly globalised world.
While studying our BA in International Relations, you'll have the opportunity to focus on global politics and world affairs. Our objective is to challenge the preconceptions that you’ll bring to the subject and to actively encourage a critical attitude to the nature of the political and the international. You can explore exciting topics such as the politics of the climate crisis, the situation in the Middle East, the world of international espionage, and the growing significance of China in the world. You’ll also have the opportunity to work on an extended research project, which could involve a dissertation, a grand challenge project, or a simulation-based group activity. The last of these presents the chance to research deeply a particular country which you will then represent at a Model United Nations Conference.
As well as working with our expert and specialist academic staff, you’ll have the opportunity to attend a lecture series hosted by the University on International Relations and International Law, which has featured high profile speakers from institutions such as NATO and the UN Security Council. This will give you access to first-hand insights and experiences from past and present practitioners in the field.
International relations graduates find careers in a wide range of fields and varied job roles. These include diplomatic posts, working for non-governmental organisations, positions within the intelligence services, and employment within international organisations such as the UN.
