Public Affairs MPA
Why choose this course
The international political landscape has undergone remarkable changes in the past 50 years. Politics continues to affect life in every area of society, and it is only through study that we can begin to make sense of the global political landscape and create real change.
Our Department of Politics is home to a lively community of energetic minds who closely examine how power operates and how it affects people’s lives. This new and innovative course is unique in the UK, and focuses on the active role that citizens can play in shaping politics at local, national, and international levels.
What you will study
Our unique integrated master’s course will give you in-depth knowledge of political science, public policy and international affairs. A distinctive feature of the course is its focus on application, and its emphasis on political and social change.
Over the four or five years of the course (depending on whether you choose to take a Professional Training placement) you’ll explore a variety of social and political issues, and be able to tailor your degree with specialist modules that match your interests. In your final year, you’ll study master’s-level modules and complete a dissertation project.
