Overview
Deepen your knowledge of security on an international scale with our MSc Security and International Relations. As globalisation continues to expand, the need for global security is imminently necessary to ensure the safety of humankind.
This course combines theory, practice, and contemporary global issues such as cyber security, gender and race security, and environmental security. With an emphasis on understanding and critically analysing the global political system, you will gain a thorough understanding of the core theories and modern concepts that make up the canon of international relations.
What’s more, you will learn from a range of experts who are research-active and specialists in their area. With this, you will gain the confidence to discuss and interrogate current issues surrounding security and international relations on a local, national, and international scale.
Through a combination of contemporary, multifaceted modules, this MSc will enable you to utilise the graduate skills that are essential for you to progress into academia or continue in a range of professions that specialise in global security and international relations.
Your future career
An MSc in International Relations will provide you with an exceptionally wide knowledge base, allowing you to command both the organising principles and nuanced specifics of the contemporary regional, international and global structure.
This innovative, relevant and marketable degree will ensure you have a refined understanding of international relations as a whole, as well as the role and application of your Security Studies specialism.
Our standard offer is a 2:2 or above, preferably in directly relatable subjects within the social and political sciences. This can include previous study in the area of international relations, although cognate subjects including history, law, comparative studies, or the broader range of sociology and psychology will also be considered providing undergraduate marks obtained are robust enough. This is in addition to two letters of recommendation, and a brief personal statement outlining interest and areas of specialism being considered, as well as a complete CV.
