This distinctive Politics degree examines the theory and practice of politics, integrating both national and international perspectives. Students will learn about the significance of an increasingly globalised political environment and understand the significance of politics as a human activity. This course is ideal for those who have a keen interest in current affairs and international trends.
This course encourages students to engage directly as a political scientist or theorist by doing their own independent research, culminating in the production of a final year dissertation on a topic of their choice. Throughout the degree students will develop a greater awareness of the complexity and connectedness of the processes that shape our world. This opens up careers in a wide range of fields in the public and private sectors, fostering the skills, imagination, understanding and flexibility that employers demand.
