Course Summary

**About This Course** On this degree you’ll look at international relations from a huge range of perspectives. You’ll consider the causes and outcomes of conflict between and within countries, global economic crises and their consequences, and the importance of organisations such as the European Union or United Nations. You’ll study immigration patterns and the challenges they raise for would-be migrants and states. You’ll learn about human rights, geopolitical dynamics such as the rise of China and questions of development, poverty, famine, disease and gender equality, within the international system.  In learning about these issues, you’ll study different regions in the world from the Asia-Pacific to Latin America to Europe, Africa, the United States, and beyond.  You’ll be taught by academic staff who are active researchers and experts in their field. And you’ll have the opportunity to take part in study trips, internships and placements in the UK and Europe, as well as an extended period of study abroad. The course will provide you with the necessary knowledge and study skills to gain a sophisticated understanding of how the world works.  **Overview** Why do wars break out? Can peace ever be permanent? How do we solve collective problems like environmental destruction, international terrorism, or disease pandemics? These are some of the big global challenges you’ll consider as you prepare for a career making a difference on an international scale. You’ll also learn how international organisations like the United Nations work, how the global political economy functions and what role political, religious and moral ideas play in international relations. You’ll explore a range of contemporary issues – from migration to nuclear weapons to human rights to poverty – through case studies from every corner of the globe.  **Disclaimer** Course details are subject to change.
