Master of Arts in International Relation

Program Overview

The MA International Relations takes your existing studies and experience to the next level. It will provide you with the knowledge and skills needed to kickstart your career in the diverse, exciting field of international relations in a range of employment settings.

Our MA explores the theories, practices and priorities of greatest relevance to the profession of international relations today. It addresses not only the most pressing issues, but those on the cutting edge of contemporary research and policy agendas: the environment, global health, populism and ideology, race and international security.

Your career growth drives our programme. During your studies, you will obtain the skills needed by successful international relations professionals. You will learn how to use the intelligence cycle, how to analyse and disseminate accurate research products, and how to develop and pursue a research agenda that generates subject matter expertise. This latter work is an opportunity to conduct a final project that marks the culmination of your studies and makes a substantial, unique contribution to knowledge in your field.

Another unique chance to develop your career lies in the opportunity to undertake a work placement during your studies. Three pathways will likely be available: (a) school or college placements for those considering teaching careers; (b) University of Suffolk research assistant placements for those considering a PhD; and (c) self-initiated placements in organisations at the broad interface of international relations, policy and government. Existing professionals will be able to conduct placements with their employers.

As a postgraduate on this innovative, career-ready MA, you will join a rapidly growing, modern university that has quickly gained a strong reputation for teaching and encouraging fresh ideas, contributing to international research excellence, and enhancing employability. Your MA International Relations will help you lead tomorrow.
