Course Description

This degree enable you to study European affairs within the context of the discipline of international relations. Thus you will be introduced to the basic aspects of political analysis through the study of the role of legislatures and executives, constitutions, political parties and voting behaviour while you engage in the comparative analysis of different European political experiences such as those of Russia and Central and Eastern Europe. You will be able to understand how the European Union operates and how it relates to the rest of the world.

Alongside the European 'backbone' of compulsory modules, you have the opportunity to study languages, as well as 'customise' your degree course by steering towards subjects which are of relevance to you and your chosen career, with modules on, for example, European politics, economics, history, media, security and European convention on human rights.

We offer options on the politics of America, Russia, and other European countries; on international relations and the EU; on democracy, utopias, and the history of political thought; on mass-media, identity, and popular culture.
