Course Overview

By studying international development, you'll be asking vitally essential questions. What is poverty? What is the connection between a country's economy and the well-being of its people? How do issues such as inequality, conflict and faith relate to development? What is globalisation, and how does it impact all of our lives?

Our course specialises in the lived experience of people in the developing world. In doing so, it challenges the assumption that development is a purely economic phenomenon.

Your third-year work placement in an NGO, which we'll help you arrange, will provide you with invaluable experience in the field, whether at the Vitality project in Bangladesh or working for the St Francis Hospice in the UK. You'll develop the skills NGOs look for in their employees.

In addition to studying theory, you'll learn about real-world issues in modules such as Human Mobility, Forced Migration and Social Change, and The Politics of Global Powers and Imperialism Now: Economy, State and War.
