Course summary
Its almost impossible to separate a single countrys politics from the interconnected world of international relations. So many of the worlds big issues – from economic crises, to war, to climate change, and to threats to democracy – are problems for domestic governments and for the international community alike. Studying International Relations and Politics, youll explore the close links between domestic and international politics. Youll normally spend nine to twelve months of your third year in a placement, gaining invaluable work experience and employability skills in a relevant area of your choice. On our BA International Relations and Politics with a Placement Year degree, youll be taught by cutting-edge specialists in both disciplines. Youll look at the political systems of powerful countries in different regions such as the United States, the EU, China and Japan in East Asia, or India. Youll explore the causes and significance of different types of conflict, and the role of the media in shaping domestic politics and foreign policy. Youll also ask big questions such as: What role do norms or values such as human rights or gender equality play in domestic and global politics? Do our moral responsibilities extend beyond the borders of the country into which we happened to be born? Why should you vote – or fight, or protest, or campaign? Our International Relations and Politics with a Placement Year course prepares you for a variety of career paths in the private, public, and not-for-profit sectors. Your personal adviser and dedicated School career adviser will work with you to provide guidance and support to ensure you have access to the right opportunities to pursue your passion and make a difference. During the course, youll have the opportunity to take part in study trips, internships and placements in the UK and Europe. Youll also have the option of a semester abroad in your second year.
