You'll investigate the exciting crossover between law and politics, particularly focusing on internationalism. Taught jointly with the Department of Law, the course covers common intellectual themes around issues such as human rights and the implications of international law, justice and democracy.

A postgraduate degree in politics is a strong foundation for a range of careers, from government and other public sector organisations to companies in the private sector, consultancies, non-governmental organisations and think-tanks. A postgraduate research degree is essential if you want an academic career.
