1-Term International Incorporated Masters (IIM) - Continue to Master of Arts - International Relations and Security Studies

The Pre-Masters program is offered over one or two terms and is designed for students who do not qualify for direct entry to the masters programs at the university. This could be due to the grades achieved in their bachelor’s degree, their current qualifications not being equivalent to a United Kingdom bachelor degree, or having a different background.

After successfully completing the Pre-Masters program, students will continue onto their chosen postgraduate degree course at the University of Bradford.

The MA in International Relations and Security Studies explores themes of peace and conflict studies, including: • war, violence, and security-building between and within states and regions • tackling WMD, conventional arms proliferation, political violence, and terrorism • development and operation of international and regional institutions • past and present transnational challenges in international and regional diplomacy • contemporary global challenges such as environmental degradation, trafficking/crime, and migration

Students will develop an advanced academic and policy-relevant understanding of international relations and security, along with analytical skills that are in high demand within institutional politics, NGO, and lobbying organizations.
