Course Overview

The course has been designed to enable you to acquire specialised subject knowledge, develop practical and professional skills and apply both to contemporary challenges, issues, and debates. Learning how to do is as important to us as learning about, and you’ll be able to work on a series of projects which look out from the University and into the city, the region, and the wider world. 

You'll develop demonstrable skills and experience, which may include leading a project team, evaluating and acting on alternative responses to a defined challenge, or pitching an idea to one of our many partner organizations, and wherever possible following this through to implementation.

Optional modules will give you the chance to go beyond the formal structures of international relations to the actions taken by individuals and their often profound impact on the ground. For instance, you might examine the role of the arts and culture in shaping international relations, or in informing our perceptions of the world around us, from the artist as an activist to the destruction of archaeological sites as an instrument of war.
