Overview If you’re eager to build a career grappling with some of the most urgent challenges facing the world, our MA in International Relations is for you. It’s an inspiring course of study, and our field-leading team of experts is here to support you. You’ll delve into the most pressing issues in global politics, such as climate change and war. You'll explore the rise of emerging powers and the Global South. You’ll study key concepts within IR to give you frameworks that help you get to grips with those issues. The course also gives you flexibility to choose specialist modules. You might tackle global economics, human rights, foreign policy, and regional politics from Europe to the Asia-Pacific. Our many links with thinktanks and policymakers give our students exciting opportunities. For example, our postgraduate students recently visited the European Institute for Asian Studies (EIAS) in Brussels. They worked with research assistants and UEA academics to produce policy briefs and op-eds for international publications, gaining transformative career experience. We welcome and support students from a variety of disciplinary backgrounds and global contexts, bringing a rich intellectual and cultural mix to each cohort. You may have studied IR before, or you may have a background in an associated degree. Or you may be coming to this area afresh, looking to change the course of your career. Whether you aim to work in international organisations, government agencies, NGOs, think tanks, or academia, this MA will set you firmly on the path towards your future career.
