By enrolling, you will explore politics in regional and global contexts, assess foreign policy dilemmas, and address issues such as security, conflict, international development, and the dynamics of key regions. The programme fosters a deep understanding of state interactions, including cooperation and conflicts, making it ideal for those seeking in-depth insights beyond media headlines. It integrates theoretical concepts with practical case studies to build analytical skills valued by employers.The degree includes a range of modules, with full details available in the 'What You'll Study' section on our website. Assessment methods encompass diverse formats, including journalistic pieces, book reviews, film analyses, and political simulations, culminating in a final-year dissertation on a self-selected topic.
