Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in International Relations with German (Study Abroad year)

Program Overview

Our diverse programme allows you to combine the study of German with International Relations.

In a world of growing interdependence, the need for a wider understanding of international affairs becomes more crucial every day. Our International Relations with German BA allows you to combine study of a modern language with international relations, which is itself interdisciplinary and covers such topics as politics, economics and the diplomatic history of the 20th century.

The third year is spent studying at a European university. You spend one third of your time in language studies two thirds taking courses in international relations. When you return to Birmingham for your fourth year you will study advanced courses in your language and in international affairs.

Why study this course?

  • If you want to take advantage of a unique work placement opportunity as part of your final year, our BA International Relations degree includes the opportunity to undertake a 'Professional Development' module as part of your optional module choices.
  • Students on our International Relations degree, are eligible to apply to be part of a delegation to the annual International Model NATO Conference, held in Washington DC in the Spring Term.

Students selected for this Conference will be provided with bursaries that cover the cost of Conference registration, accommodation and subsistence.
