International Relations and Development

About this course

International relations and development sits at the intersection of two connected fields: the study of how states, international organisations, and non-state actors interact in the global system, and the study of what drives economic and social development in poorer countries and how international actors can support or hinder it. It is a discipline shaped by some of the most pressing challenges of our time, from conflict, migration, and climate change to debt, trade governance, and the politics of aid and humanitarian intervention. Understanding both the political architecture of the international system and the development challenges that system must address is essential for anyone who wants to engage seriously with global affairs. At Westminster you will study this three-year full-time programme, with a year abroad providing you with international exposure and the opportunity to study
