BA (Hons) Politics and International Relations

Explore the themes and issues which drive 21st-century world politics. Our Politics and International Relations degree takes you behind the headlines to gain expertise in international affairs, focusing on conflict and war, wealth, poverty and inequality, international law, international relations theory and international organisations. What distinguishes politics programmes at Hull is the opportunity to apply your studies to the real world. We have an established programme of internships with public and private organisations, including a challenging three-month placement at Westminster. Here you'll have the opportunity to work with a parliamentarian who shares your interest in international relations, perhaps a member of the Foreign Affairs or International Development Committee. Alternatively, you can choose to study abroad at one of our partner universities in Europe, Hong Kong or North America.
