MA, PGDip, PGCert International Relations and World Order by distance learning

... United Kingdom
... University of Leicester

Course Overview

Our postgraduate degrees are an excellent way to enhance your expertise and career prospects. A postgraduate course in politics and international relations provides a foundation for many career options. For example, you may seek to use your knowledge to work in government service, international organizations, or areas of political research and journalism. Or you may opt to look for employment in an unrelated field, such as banking, business, or teaching, where your MA will be respected as a postgraduate qualification.

Our politics and international relations courses are offered via distance learning, enabling you to tailor your study around your other commitments. The wide range of option modules provides you with the flexibility to tailor your course around your interests and also provides you with the skills and knowledge to move into a variety of careers or postgraduate research. The course will introduce you to differing concepts of order in the post-Cold War world. It will enable you to think critically about the nature of international relations: the extent to which Western interests, institutions, and culture dominate the world system and the challenges and responses generated by that dominance. The course focuses on both theoretical and empirical approaches to this subject.

You will complete two core modules, including one which will critically examine how the West maintains its concept of 'Order.' You can then choose two option modules that, along with your dissertation, allow you to specialize in areas that interest you or complement your professional goals.

As well as equipping you with a detailed understanding of contemporary international relations, this degree will develop your ability to think analytically and critically and produce reasoned arguments encompassing your increased knowledge and experience of the issues.
