Master of International Public Policy - MSc
English Requirements
- IELTS Overall Band: 7.0
The 21st century testifies to novel global challenges related to terrorism, food supply, climate change, migratory pressures and emerging political resources. These challenges are complex and multi-dimensional in nature, rendering policy solutions problematic. Political authority is also more widespread than before, resting with different actors such as overseas agencies, international policy networks, public-private partnerships or NGOs, in addition to the traditional nation. The MSc in International Public Policy at Queen Marry University in London provides students with a detailed and systematic understanding of how political institutions, processes and public policies work in global affairs. The course brings together a course on international relations education and an automated analysis of public policy and administration across the country.
Drawing on international relations, public policy and comparative politics, the MSc in International Public Policy will equip you with the theoretical tools and practical skills needed for a broader understanding of policy making to address contemporary events. You will read a combination of basic units and selected options, including a generous selection of free options, and write a guided summer dissertation. The program's optional modules include key policy areas such as US foreign policy, immigration and refugees, terrorism, energy and food security, in addition to Asian politics, EU foreign policy and security, media and war, and international law.
Teaching is done mainly in seminars for a small group, supplemented by a single dissertation lesson. The course places a premium on building theory and practice, by providing the elements of practice and observing real-world challenges. An expert from the School of Politics and International Relations provides you with a competitive opportunity to enter certain professional fields. You will be able to get support on all your levels, including one-on-one guidance, personalized workshops and guest speakers on topics such as careers in public affairs and working in Parliament. Graduates of the school have developed and worked for: the Department of Education, local councils and the Institute of Engineering.
