Course Overview
This course aims to increase your understanding of the multiple factors that affect international relations as well as the ethical and political issues around peacekeeping, security and state-building. It prepares you to work internationally in the fields of politics, economics or business.
You learn the key concepts of international relations theory and apply your knowledge to analyse the effect of dominating political ideologies, such as those that led to the Cold War and Post-Cold War eras. Using a practice-based approach incorporating real business situations, the course develops your understanding of areas like the growth in NGOs; the importance of the UN; the globalisation of industry; and the significance of multicultural communities made up of economic migrants and refugees.
In your final Master’s Capstone project, you can choose one of three options - business dissertation, business live project or professional practice – and specialise in an aspect of international relations that matches your interests or career aspirations.
