Politics and International Relations
Nottingham Trent UniversityCourse Overview
Offered by Nottingham Trent University, the BA (Hons) Politics and International Relations provides a comprehensive undergraduate education in social sciences. Based in Nottingham, England, this programme combines theoretical knowledge with practical application, with a 4-year full-time structure. Our world is a complex, contradictory place. In many ways, we’re broader minded and better connected than ever before; in others, the impact of war, disease, intolerance and instability threatens to undermine our progress. With divisive, post-factual ‘truths’ continuing to infiltrate the news, it’s often hard to know what’s really happening — but we’ll give you the critical skills to hear through that noise. International tuition fees are £17,950 per year, home/UK fees are £9,790 per year, and a minimum IELTS score of 6.5 is required for admission. Graduates from this programme benefit from strong career prospects, with 88% student satisfaction rating, a median graduate salary of £24,000 within three years, and 79% of graduates in employment or further study.
