Program Description

The International Foundation Year in Business, Law and Social Studies will provide you with a rounded introduction to all three topics, as well as offering insight into more focused modules of your choice. A featured core module in Economics will give you the grounding to understand and develop your knowledge in your chosen modules. You will then have the opportunity to tailor your module options towards subjects such as International Relations, Accounting and Politics, to cater to your interests and solidify a clear progression degree.

We live in a time of great social upheaval and dramatic political change. This degree will allow you to explore political ideas, structures and approaches that will help you to understand these complex circumstances.

Core modules in this program will give you a grounding in political theory, international relations, development studies and systems of government used around the world.

As an undergraduate student of politics, you will pursue topics that suit your own interests and concerns: we offer a wide range of optional modules exploring topics, from political psychology to security studies, supported by the unique breadth of research specialisms within the School of Politics and International Studies.
