Global Development

MSc Global Development offers a coherent and interdisciplinary grounding in the core aspects of development theory, policy and practice.

The course is designed for social science graduates, or for those working in a wide range of development organisations both internationally and in the Global South.

It aims to blend theory and practice and seeks to explain policy behaviour through an integrated approach, drawing on a range of disciplinary perspectives.

MSc Global Development is both a course in its own right and an umbrella structure that houses a range of more specialised master's courses, each of which explores a key dimension of global development under four broad thematic headings:

global political economy; 

governance and management; 

poverty and inequality; 

the environment.

The course is ideal if you're looking to learn more about low- and middle-income countries, would like to gain the skills and capacity to think critically about development, and/or are interested in studying a truly interdisciplinary course.
