Program Overview

• Learn the latest thinking in analysing and explaining political trends or issues.
• Develop a critical understanding of political institutions, ideologies and theories.
• Gain valuable work experience with well-known organisations.
• Visit Brussels for a chance to meet policy makers and politicians.
• Prepare for the degree with an extra foundation year at the start.

Develop the skills to formulate and defend complex ideas – and the ability to think clearly and objectively. Be given the platform to debate convincingly. By focusing on the application of political ideas in the real world, this degree supports you in a variety of career paths.

If you don't meet the entry requirements for our BA (Hons) courses – or if you’re not quite ready for studying at degree-level – we recommend you take our foundation course. You’ll share the foundation year with other Social Science students before moving onto your degree.
