International Relations Major
International Relations is the study of the international political, social, cultural and economic system. You will explore the historical development of that system and gain a comprehensive understanding of the actors, institutions, and processes of international relations.
The major focuses on territorial states that acknowledge no superior authority over issues vital to national interest. You will analyse the nature of this system—the rules and forces governing the behaviour of states, the factors that lead to military conflict or peaceful co-operation, and the current trends towards both a more globally integrated, and a more fragmented world.
