Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - International Politics

If a student is contemplating a future in the world of politics, they will need to understand issues of power, alliances, conflict and peace on a global scale.

The University of Stirling will help them build a confident and well-rounded knowledge of all these issues and more – from the decision-making processes of influential organisations, through to the question of how societies are shaped. The students will be learning in a research-led environment, where the latest political events are dissected by recognised experts. The students will also benefit from our career-focused approach, which enables them to pick up the practical and analytical skills employers are looking for.

To further enhance the students international outlook, the students will, have a chance to spend a semester studying Politics at the University of Gothenburg – or a range of other partner institutions. The students can also combine International Politics with French or Spanish to add another valuable facet to everything they are leaning.
