Politics with a Minor
This degree programme addresses the traditional concerns of politics – the study of power, decision-making, and collective actions – through the examination of European and international political systems, political theory, and post-war political history. It provides a framework for developing skills of political analysis, communication, and conceptual thought. The Politics with a Minor programme provides students with an opportunity to acquire or develop foreign language skills and/or the possibility of studying abroad in an English-language European partner institution; it also enables students to combine their main undergraduate studies with a related discipline in the humanities, social science or management.
International Relations
This degree programme blends the empirical study of states and international organisations with an analysis of the theoretical frameworks of international relations. There is a particular focus on intelligence and security issues, as well as the operation of foreign policy, all of which are aspects of international relations that have a clear contemporary relevance. The International Relations programme provides students with an opportunity to acquire or develop foreign language skills and/or the possibility of studying abroad in an English-language European partner institution; it also enables students to combine their main undergraduate studies with a related discipline in the humanities, social science or management.
