BA (Hons) International Relations and Politics

About your course This innovative degree will provide a grounding in international relations theory while examining in-depth issues of enduring international significance. By examining the challenges the world faces today, we will encourage you to develop your own opinions and actively engage in politics. The degree takes an expanded definition of International Relations and covers a range of subjects from economics, politics, law and culture to examine the actions of international organisations, nation-states and non-state actors. It provides you with an essential grounding in international relations theory and a range of specialist modules, which examine in-depth issues of enduring international significance; such as conflict, state-building, and the role of multilateral organisations. To develop your knowledge and interest in the varying topics and roles that people do, we will hold and attend regular events and workshops with practitioners and experts.
