Course Overview

Our postgraduate degrees are an excellent way to enhance your expertise and career prospects and provide a foundation for many career options. For example, you may seek to use your knowledge to work in government service, international organizations, or areas of political research and journalism. Or you may opt to look for employment in fields such as banking, business, or teaching, where your MA will be respected as a postgraduate qualification.

You may also want to consider further research after you graduate. For example, political Research graduates specializing in political research find that the research skills the degree fosters are invaluable. As a result, they now occupy posts as lecturers, research associates, and assistants.

Students taking postgraduate degrees offered by Politics and International Relations at Leicester have gone into careers in the civil service, business, the law, the police, banking, journalism, management consultancy, librarianship, and teaching. Others have gone on to doctoral research.
