Looking to deepen your expertise of global politics and its influence on the movement of goods, services, people and ideas? Develop the skills, network and mindset to operate across borders and cultures on our MSc Diplomacy, International Politics and Trade.

How do political decisions shape policy and business environments? How do diplomatic negotiations between states lead to trade deals that set standards and regulate the supply chain – and what are the most pressing challenges to diplomatic practice today?

On this master's, youll examine the economic consequences of political choices like Brexit, and of global issues and crises such as climate change and Covid-19. Step into the shoes of negotiators, diplomats and lobbyists working to solve real-world problems – and build a robust skillset to help organisations navigate the diplomatic developments of the future.

Gain real-world perspective and work-ready skills

Taught by leading academics, youll learn how to decode the political environment, studying topics like digital diplomacy, social movements and political violence.

Specialise in areas like foreign policy analysis, peace-building and international development, supported by insights from professionals working in organisations like the Embassy of Brazil, the Foreign and Commonwealth Office and Minority Rights Group International.

Throughout the year, youll build key skills in simulated negotiations, policy design projects and forecasting activities. So youre well prepared to work sensitively and effectively in the field.

Studying in London, a global political and economic centre, youll be in the prime location for internationally focused collaborative projects and to expand your network.

Specialist knowledge for a career with global focus

This course is ideal if youre from a politics background and want to apply your understanding to world issues, flows and forces. If youre coming from business, finance or economics, it's a pathway into the political dimension, giving you specialist knowledge of the political and diplomatic climate that affects every type of business.

With an in-depth understanding of the codes of political behaviour, youll be well equipped to forge a career in diplomacy, government, the civil service or in any organisation with an international outlook.

Your future career

With specialist knowledge of the complexities and influence of international politics, youll be ready for roles in diplomacy, policy-making, governance and business relations.

You'll graduate with a work-ready skillset and the know-how to make an impact in any area that interests you, on a national or international scale.
