Course summary

Our Masters in Global Development explores the challenges people, states and corporations face in addressing demands for growth, citizenship and wellbeing in the Global South. You will engage with existing and emerging solutions to meet these demands, and the range of actors and policies striving to deliver better development outcomes. Drawing on the University of Glasgow’s strengths in global development studies, international relations, politics, economic & social history, sociology and social policy, you will understand the deeply embedded challenges of addressing inequalities in Global South settings and what failing to address them means, for everyone.
