Course summary

War has returned to Europe. Economic power is shifting to Asia. Global issues like climate change are rising up the agenda. It’s harder than ever to ignore the importance of international politics. Join us to explore why wars happen, why peace persists, and why states struggle to work collectively. We’ve designed this course to cover key areas such as the state system, security and globalisation. You'll study through the lens of historical and contemporary examples, from the 1870s Scramble for Africa to the global financial crisis, while learning how to apply theory to the real world. Our regional expertise encompasses North and South America, Europe, Africa, Russia, South Asia and Southeast Asia. You’ll be taught by academics specialising in everything from feminism to applied topics like foreign policy.


Your future career starts here

Diverse thinking creates brilliant breakthroughs. That’s why we think there’s something special about our East End location. We welcome different people to share their ways of thinking and living, letting them fuel what we do. Through events, conferences, and our research centres, you’ll hear from high-profile people working in Westminster and Whitehall and be part of conversations on the latest thinking in the area. Whether you want to work in government, policy research, media or another area of business, tell us your goals and we’ll help you get there.
