BA Politics
This course allows you to take a comprehensive overview of the subject of politics. You'll be introduced to a wide range of topics from political theory through to international relations.
You'll learn how to apply the concepts, theories and methods used in the study of politics to the analysis of political ideas, institutions and practices.
Our programmes are designed to give you a solid foundation in theory, methods and analytical skills, whilst at the same time offering you the choice to specialise in the subject areas that you find the most interesting, ensuring you get the most out of your degree.
In your first year you'll be introduced to the key areas of the discipline. We'll support you in making the transition to degree-level study, and provide you with the knowledge and analytical skills you'll use as you progress throughout your time with us.
In year two you'll further develop your existing skills and apply them to real life political questions and issues. By examining different approaches and perspectives we'll prepare you to become an independent researcher in your own right.
By your final year you'll be ready to carry out your own independent research, with our support, alongside your choice of taught modules. You'll learn about the cutting-edge research we're doing in the department.
