专业概况

在这里学什么？

Develop the skills and understanding to tackle the global challenges of poverty, inequality, conflict, sustainability and social justice.

Whether you are a graduate aiming to make a difference in the world, or a professional wishing to deepen your knowledge and critical thinking, our suite of International Development MSc courses is for you.

Engaged with current debates in policy and practice and grounded in interdisciplinary social sciences, you will develop the tools and confidence to work towards creative solutions that address practical problems in strategic ways.

Four distinct pathways provide a choice of flexibility and breadth, or the chance to pursue a particular interest in greater depth.

Innovative learning approaches promote in-depth investigation of particular cases and issues. These will draw out connections and contradictions between different actors and analytical perspectives, across global, regional, national and local scales.

The opportunity of a placement, leading to a work-based project, will provide hands-on experience to complement classroom-based learning.

You will leave the course with:

• a critical understanding of the concepts and approaches used in international development and humanitarian action, and their strengths and limitations
• practical skills in research, analysis and communication and an understanding of how these can be applied in work for social, economic and environmental justice in both global North and global South
• the ability to analyse the complex interaction of social, economic, political and environmental factors in shaping problems and proposed solutions
• rich experience of working with people from a wide range of disciplinary, professional and national backgrounds.

Graduate prospects

This course provides an excellent background for those wishing to pursue an international development career and improve people’s lives.

You will be qualified to work in a wide variety of roles, including social research, public policy, public information and campaigning.

Graduates from similar courses have found jobs with organisations such as:

• Economic Development Team Leader for the UK Department for International Development Palestinian programme in Jerusalem
• Outreach Channel Director at Marie Stopes International

• Private Sector Development Adviser at the UK Department for International Development
• Power Sector Policy Adviser at the UK Department for International Development
