Course programme

Our students follow a flexible programme with a wide choice of modules. Students take two core modules in International Relations Theory and Dilemmas in International Relations. Together, these core modules provide students with the theoretical and conceptual foundations needed to understand and think about the subject. Students then design the rest of the programme around their own interests by selecting four modules from a wide range of options. The flexibility of this programme is ideal for those with a broad range of interests in international politics or for those who want to construct a curriculum around a particular area of interest, such as security, diplomacy, international political economy or gender.

This degree programme comprises the following modules:

Core modules
  • 20 credits - International Relations Theory
  • 20 credits - Dilemmas in International Relations
  • 60 credits - Dissertation - 13,500 word dissertation (not applicable to Diploma Students)
Optional modules
  • Choose 4 modules from the POLSIS optional modules list

Please note these courses have changed for 2019/20. For students studying in 2018/19 please refer to the Programmes and Modules handbook.

The optional modules listed on the website for this programme may unfortunately occasionally be subject to change. As you will appreciate key members of staff may leave the University and this necessitates a review of the modules that are offered. Where the module is no longer available we will let you know as soon as we can and help you make other choices.
