Course summary

Are you passionate about confronting inequality? Tackling injustice? And solving global challenges? From COVID-19 to the climate crisis, the world is constantly developing. And we believe it’s not just one person’s agenda – it’s a global issue that requires a global response. Discover cutting edge ideas and practices as you prepare to confront our changing world. You’ll debate development theory, develop evidence-based responses to major world issues, and learn the interdisciplinary tools you need to create positive change.


International immersion

You could study Global Development anywhere. But here we offer an exciting range of UK and overseas fieldwork. Plus, you’ll have the opportunity to intern as a researcher with London International Development Centre, working at the forefront of international development. You’ll be taught by academics who’ve made a real impact in their fields of research, covering international migration, urban water and gender-based violence, and much more. We also welcome expert global development guest speakers to inspire your own research, such as Professor Maristella Svampa from Argentina who is the leading scholar on global extractivist industries. With a broadened perspective of world events, you could build a career working to assist those affected by conflict, disasters and poverty. Or perhaps you’ll be keen to make waves in policy development, human rights, environmental action or conflict resolution.
