Summary

The International Politics MA programme is for students who want to explore international politics more widely. It is designed to help you follow your specific interests and specialise your knowledge. The course has been designed to give you the chance to pursue your own questions about the way the world works – and to shape arguments where you feel it doesn’t.

The knowledge and skills you develop during the course will enable you to explore a number of rewarding career options – from supporting NGOs to working with the civil service or media.

Is the USA a benevolent global leader or a neo-imperial power? How does the shift in power from the West to the Rest reshape international politics in the 21st century? Can states act effectively in a world increasingly shaped by international institutions and global economic actors?

The International Politics MA will challenge your point of view and help you:

  • Explore an expansive and ever-changing subject and gain an advanced specialist education in international politics

  • Learn about the broad contours of the field while developing specialisms backed by real-world research

  • Probe the ideas that structure the way we think about the world and examine the institutions that determine events

  • Focus on how you can use this new understanding to judge global affairs for yourself

Examine and critically evaluate the complex structure of relationships between governments, transnational actors and networks, and intergovernmental organizations

  • Gain an advanced conceptualization of global political issues in the 21st century

  • Understand contemporary theoretical debates and the rapid political change in the contemporary world

  • Develop your analytical capacities through a variety of learning techniques

Prepare for a diverse range of careers, as well as provide contextual knowledge that will be applicable for life-long learning in a rapidly changing political and social world."
