About the course

Our Politics and International Relations BA (Hons) degree explores the domestic, international, and global challenges confronting states and citizens in the 21st century. It examines the ideas shaping political development, state formation, and governance systems, while analysing state relationships, key events, and theoretical frameworks. Students will investigate political theory, institutions, and history, reflecting on their role as global citizens and the dilemmas faced by decision-makers.The programme covers a range of modules, with full details available on our website. Assessment methods include essays, group presentations, case studies, political simulations, reports, and a final-year dissertation on a chosen topic. For the international relations component, evaluations may involve journalistic pieces, book reviews, film analyses, or simulations, fostering essential analytical and argumentative skills for diverse careers. If studying abroad in the third year, students may earn a Diploma in International Studies.
