MSc International Relations

... United Kingdom
... University of Strathclyde

Course Overview

This course will equip you with a grounding in the analysis of international politics in terms of the issues, actors and processes that shape the world today and the theoretical frameworks and methodological techniques by which we make sense of them.

What role do potent states, international organisations and social movements play in international and regional politics? How should we respond to global crises and conflicts? How does power operate in, across and between states? In what ways do international political and economic processes shape the everyday lives of people across the globe? And how can we explain and evaluate such strategies?

This MSc in International Relations will help you answer these questions. It will equip you with a systematic grounding in the analysis of international politics regarding the issues, actors and processes that shape the world today and the theoretical frameworks and methodological techniques by which we make sense of them.

The course is distinctive in combining American and British, positivist and critical, approach to this field of study, as well as in its range of specialist classes on topics as diverse as international law, the EU, security and gender.
