Course Overview

As a politics student, you'll look at the work of governments and their policies and study the behaviour of those who govern - and who they are governing - both at home and abroad. You'll also gain knowledge of domestic and international institutions and issues relating to conflict and cooperation. We cover diverse and relevant problems, such as international terrorism to the 2014 Scottish Independence Referendum.

Politics graduates can go on to work in several areas, with many pursuing academic research careers in the UK, Europe and North America.

With more than 500 million native speakers, Spanish is the world's second most commonly spoken language. Speaking Spanish will help you conduct business more confidently in countries increasingly crucial in world markets. 

Studying with us will allow you to become a fluent linguist and, with our year abroad programme, an opportunity to experience living, working and studying in another country.
