This programme is especially designed for those with an interdisciplinary background who wish to more fully comprehend core issues and approaches within international relations post 9/11; students undertaking the course come from a variety of disciplinary backgrounds and it is not assumed that all students have similar abilities or skills.
International Relations is a vital and dynamic field of intellectual inquiry that offers an interdisciplinary exploration of human interaction. Students undertaking the course will come from a variety of disciplinary backgrounds and it is not assumed that all students will have similar abilities or skills. It is not our aim to encourage further specialisation along the line of a student's first degree but rather to complement existing knowledge and build upon transferable capabilities. Overall this is a unique opportunity for graduates both with and without social science experience to study at a very high level for a postgraduate degree with global relevance.
