International Relations and Social Anthropology

The BA International Relations degree provides a uniquely global and comparative approach to the study of world affairs. Through a study of world history and global power relations, students gain a better understanding of the sources of conflict and cooperation among states, shifts in the international economy, as well as the roles of culture, identity and ideas in world politics. It is structured around a combination of disciplinary, regional and specialised courses, with opportunities to take other Politics option courses or a language.
