Course Overview

Our International Relations (including foundation year) BA course is excellent preparation for academic study and a career within diplomacy, politics, or non-governmental organizations (NGOs). Your foundation year will be shared with students from other disciplines, so youll get to learn alongside individuals with different academic interests and strengths. Youll find that the foundation year is a unique opportunity to improve your academic skills including critical thinking, essay writing, and research in the context of social sciences. The foundation year will also provide a broad base for the study of international relations. Youll explore topics such as media, crime, race, society, and identity, all of which affect the realm of national and international politics. These modules are also great in helping you develop vital academic skills, critically analyze material, and improve your writing and research abilities. During this year, youll also study a module more related to international relations, which will allow you to get a better understanding of the subjects and themes youll study in the subsequent three years.
