Bachelor of Arts in International Relations and Global Development
Program Overview
On the BA International Relations and Global Development degree in the Department of International Politics at Aberystwyth University, you will have the opportunity to explore what international relations look like when viewed from beyond the developed world.
This course challenges the Western-centric narratives of international politics by studying the interconnectedness of the developed and developing powers, engaging with marginalised issues and voices, and exploring the emerging global powers in Latin America, South Asia and the Middle East. You will explore key issues such as colonialism, inequality, development, gender, identity, political economy, culture, race, religion, resistance and social movements.
Why study International Relations and Global Development at Aberystwyth University?
Studying this degree will allow you to broaden and deepen your understanding on key questions, such as:
- The ways that power and inequality operate at the local, regional, national and international level and shape global development
- The roles of governance, colonialism, poverty, conflict, health and capitalism , as well as the significance of race, gender, religion, ideology and nationalism for emerging powers and states in the Global South
You will become a student in the world’s first department of international politics, founded in 1919 after the end of World War I to help people understand the world.
You will be guided and mentored by lecturers who are enthusiastic, committed in providing you with an outstanding and dynamic learning environment.
All students will have the opportunity to participate in our renowned ‘Crisis Games’; - a three-day role-playing exercise in political, economic and diplomatic manoeuvre, developing negotiation and communication, critical thinking, team work, and problem-solving skills.
