Duration
1 Year
Develop your understanding of what corruption is, where and why it proliferates, and what can be done to counteract it.
You’ll address challenging issues of how different disciplines define corruption and how this can lead to different anti-corruption approaches. You’ll examine specific examples – from systematic abuses of power by parties, politicians and civil servants to small-scale, petty misdemeanours. The role of business can also be analysed.
Based in the world-leading Sussex Centre for the Study of Corruption, this course remains the only full-time MA in the world analysing issues of corruption, anti-corruption and governance.

About this course
Our MA equips you with the skills for a career in a wide variety of fields. You are particularly well placed to work:
at the interface between the private and public sectors
in the area of public policy-making
the Civil Service and business
in areas of corporate social responsibility – an area of growing importance for many national and international companies.
Development and a wide variety of NGOs and charities are also options. The skills you develop are highly valued in journalism, including a fine eye for what is and is not acceptable government and business practice.
The optional internship helps you to develop and apply a range of practical skills prospective employers find attractive.
You should normally have an upper second-class (2.1) undergraduate honours degree or above.
