About 3.5-Term Pathway - International Year One in Politics and International Relations - Continue to Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Politics (Year Abroad)

Program Description

For students that completed high school with good grades but don’t qualify for entry to an undergraduate degree, they could study an International Year One, which combines university preparation with degree 1st year. After completing this pathway option students qualify for progression to the 2nd year of an undergraduate degree at the University of Essex.

Students’ course length is determined mainly by their English language level (UKVI IELTS score). Students on all course lengths take a set of common or similar modules to gain a solid base of skills for university. If the course is longer than 2 terms, they’ll take additional modules designed to improve one or more of their English language level, academic skills, and basic knowledge of particular subjects.

Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Politics

The University of Essex BA Politics course provides a thorough training in all major areas of political science, and is based in the top politics department in the country. Always seeking political cause and effect, the course casts light on aspects of life students might never ordinarily connect to politics and government. Students investigate the scope of political science as a field of inquiry, and the methods used by political scientists, in order to explore questions concerning both what does occur in politics, and what should occur in politics.

Study topic include: concepts in political science, international relations, democratic systems, political power, obligations, freedom, rights and equality.

Politics at Essex is all about moving from opinions to evidence. Students will quickly learn to ask – and how to answer – the “how do you know?” question. Essex trains students to be fearless and independent, to question everything and to draw on the broadest possible range of facts and ideas.

The School's Department of Government is one of the most prestigious in Europe, with an outstanding record of teaching, research and publication. They are rated top in the UK for research, and have consistently been the highest-rated politics department in the country since national assessments began.
