Course summary

International Relations is about competition for power in the international political system, and the possibilities for co-operation to address shared global challenges. Our BSc (Hons) International Relations course focuses on the ways that international politics is organised. Our course will introduce you to global questions of strategy and great power conflict, international organisations, diplomacy and foreign policy-making. Along the way you’ll be able to address the social and political issues behind the biggest debates in contemporary international affairs. Our award-winning Professional Training placements prepare students for roles in industry. On our BSc (Hons) International Relations, you’ll receive a full grounding in the discipline as a whole. You’ll examine questions of global significance, develop a understanding of the theoretical perspectives on international politics, and explore national, regional and transnational trends through a wide range of historic and contemporary case studies. You will have the opportunity to develop and apply primary research skills on a topic of your choice if you choose to write a dissertation in your final year.
