In today's environment of rapid global, social, technological, and cultural transformations, Politics, History, and International Relations are some of the most relevant and exciting programmes of study. In this dynamic programme, you will examine the past, present, and future and how they interconnect, human experience throughout history to contemporary times, and develop critical thinking, communication, research, and analytical skills. You may explore and debate challenging topics such as party politics, war, protest, civil rights, the media, heritage, social data, power, equality, etc., examining political and historical issues from a national and international perspective. History focuses on the study of events, issues, and people of the past, Politics focuses on national affairs, domestic policies, and political theories, concepts and ideologies, while International Relations focuses on political issues and foreign affairs affecting the world today.  

The sessions will comprise a mix of interactive activities run by researchers across departments and opportunities to interact with current students, in addition to meeting professionals in the field that have put their degrees into practice. Along the way, you will be supported by key members of staff and student ambassadors who will offer guidance on applying to university and will be available to discuss any practical concerns you may have.  

In times of upheaval and change, Politics, History, and International Relations is the ideal programme to better understand and explore historical and political events, topics, and issues and provide you with the opportunity to join the global conversation. If you have an interest in human experience, how the past has shaped (and continues to shape) the present, and how the world works today, this is the course for you!
