Pursue a Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in Politics and International Relations at Loughborough University. Engage with global issues and apply now!
Loughborough University's Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in Politics and International Relations offers a fantastic opportunity to study domestic, international and global challenges that states and citizens face in the 21st Century, and to contribute to debates about the theory and practice of politics in the contemporary era. In the course students will study the ideas that have shaped the development of domestic and international politics, the creation of states, and the systems by which people organise their political lives. The course will give the the opportunity to study the relationships between states on the world stage, and debate key issues and events as they unfold. Students will learn about political theory, institutions, and history, and they will be asked to question their own role in world politics, what is required of them as citizens of a state (and of the world), the practical and theoretical difficulties faced by decision makers across the world, and how actually existing states have sought to resolve these difficulties. The course therefore equips students with knowledge and understanding of political and international events, ideas, and institutions. In learning about these, they will also learn the skills of argument and analysis which are essential to their own intellectual development, but also for a wide range of careers.
