BA (Hons) International Relations in Nottingham United Kingdom | Nottingham Trent University

The future world is interconnected on a global scale. We share one planet, our economies are interdependent, and the problems we encounter require collaborative solutions - yet international governance stays fragmented. This core dilemma is what International Relations (IR) scholars must address, tackling pressing global concerns including armed conflicts, environmental crises, worldwide economic disparity, gender-based oppression, and systemic racial discrimination.

At IRNTU, customization is key. After mastering foundational concepts in your first year, you'll tailor your studies to match your specific interests. You might focus on political extremism and security threats, examine how entertainment influences international affairs, or specialize in African, Latin American or Caribbean regional studies. Whether you aspire to work in foreign service or journalism, or are drawn to gender studies or decolonial theory, IRNTU offers comprehensive options. The program culminates in an original research project where you'll select your focus area, conduct in-depth investigation with expert guidance, and establish yourself as an IR specialist.

Our program revolutionizes IR education through disciplinary innovation, pioneering teaching methods, and fostering unconventional learning approaches. You'll develop versatile professional skills applicable to diverse fields like organizational leadership, international negotiations, communications, humanitarian work, supply chain management, global businesses, and national defense. In our increasingly borderless job market, no qualification equips you better for success than an IR degree from our institution.
