The Master of International Relations at UWA is a professionally oriented postgraduate course studied over three or four semesters (full-time equivalent).
It offers you the opportunity to gain deep expertise in international relations, with a particular focus on dynamic Indo-Pacific and Indian Ocean regions.
The course provides you with knowledge, skills and networks to prepare you for a rewarding career in foreign affairs and diplomacy, government, international and non-governmental organisations, the media and education.
The program is structured by a core component, where you will gain knowledge of the major sub-fields including International Relations Theory and Practice, International Security, International Political Economy, the Evolution of International Society, and Governance in the International System.
Capstone unit options put you in the shoes of policymakers and diplomats responding to international crises and enable you to ‘practice international relations while studying International Relations’ through collaborative study with students, academics and diplomats from Indian Ocean regional partners.
The course offers a credited internship unit that can be undertaken with local, national and international organisations, such as government departments, embassies, think tanks, NGOs or regional institutions.
