Course content

We all have to live with the consequences of state actions, for example, whether countries are receptive or hostile to refugees fleeing war and oppression, or whether there is an adequate response to climate change.

International relations form the backdrop to such decisions, and impact our ability as a society to address global problems.

This course analyses the relations between states and through our research-led teaching, builds an understanding of issues including global justice, the causes of war, intelligence and national security, and international human rights.

You'll graduate ready for a range of careers including working in the public and private sector, the media, politics, government or research.
