Examine the major issues affecting the world. Discover why nation states rise and fall. Take a closer look at the factors behind the international conflict, and learn the role state leaders, NGOs, civil society and activists play in solving these problems.

In this BA (Hons) International Relations degree, you'll explore topics like global migration and the rise of populist politics worldwide. You’ll learn the skills required to play your part in improving equality and enacting positive change.

And after graduation, you’ll be ready for careers in the local and national government, security, tech, and intelligence, and with international charities and institutions like the UN.
