Program Overview

Better cooperation between nations is key to developing the solutions to some of society’s most pressing challenges – peace, security, protection of human rights and fair distribution of goods and resources. The world needs individuals with a desire to make a positive impact, whose understanding of politics and international relations can inform, develop and negotiate the mutually agreed rules, regulations and standards of conduct to achieve them.

The flexible structure of our suite of MA/MRes Politics and International Relations programmes provides a high degree of focus, enabling you to engage with specific issues and carry out research into subjects of interest and relevance. You can build a tailored, systematic programme of study, choosing from our diverse collection of four different pathways – in Global Security, Politics, US Politics and International Relations – as well as a wide range of module choices. We also offer an MSc in International Diplomacy.

On this Politics pathway, you can learn more about the nature and role of fundamental political structures in Europe, the most regionally integrated political and economic environment in the world. Alternatively, you may wish to focus on issues of personal interest, environmental concerns like climate change, for example, or the impact of immigration policies on human rights.

There is an increasing demand in government, non-profits and academia for professionals skilled in politics and international relations – two subject specialisms in which Keele has enjoyed a longstanding reputation for teaching and research excellence.

International relations has been taught here for over 50 years, founded by Professor Alan James, one of the first chairs of the British International Studies Association. While some of the best known political scientists in the UK and Europe have worked at Keele since the 1950s, including Samuel Finer, Jean Blondel, Hugh Berrington and Jack Hayward.
