Course Overview

What you'll study?

This stimulating degree offers you the opportunity to combine key components of International Relations as well as the chance to examine a range of political systems and theories.

You will acquire the skills required to: critically engage with a range of texts (including books, documents, scholarly articles, journalistic sources, and web-based sources); debate and discuss events, ideas and arguments; critically compile and effectively present knowledge, arguments and opinions; research independently using primary and secondary sources; put all of this into practice in real-world contexts

Throughout this course you'll won't just study politics, you'll have the chance to practice what you learn. In the Politics and International Relations in Practice Module in Year One, you'll have the opportunity to get involved with real-world politics, such as participating in the Student Parliament or student society. You'll also be actively encouraged to participate in voluntary work.

Please be aware that some modules on the BA (Hons) Politics and International Relations course may be taught at our Clifton Campus.
