The PGDipArts serves as an alternative pathway to the Bachelor of Arts (Honours). It offers a diverse selection of Arts disciplines, with the potential option to incorporate a dissertation. This program could be ideal if you seek advanced academic work without a dissertation requirement, if your home country doesn't recognise honours degrees, or if you prefer part-time study over an extended duration. Through either the Bachelor of Arts (Honours) or Master of Arts in Politics and International Relations, you can tailor your studies to align with your specific research interests and professional aspirations. Our postgraduate offerings span key areas of Politics and International Relations: International relations, Political theory, Politics and media studies, Comparative politics, and Public policy. The curriculum focuses on contemporary themes including human rights, global security and terrorism, diplomatic studies, multicultural identities, political communication, leadership dynamics, and media-political interactions. We actively support and guide students in pursuing supervised research projects where feasible.
