Overview

Bachelor of Arts - Political Science and International Relations

UWA's Bachelor of Arts is one of the most flexible and diverse degrees in Western Australia.

You will graduate with the skills to address complex social issues, integrate local and global knowledge and perspectives, collaborate across disciplinary, organisational and cultural boundaries, and perform human processes that cannot be mechanised or automated. 

Societies can only continue to exist if they solve the problem of internal order and can protect themselves from external threats. 

Political Science and International Relations study how societies govern themselves and the collective decisions, or public policies, they need, or choose, to make. 

Work integrated learning

Our units give students internship opportunities with state and federal parliamentarians, business groups, civil society NGOs, and think tanks. 

Through such programs, numerous students have benefited from experiential learning and opened up new paths for future careers. 

Studies also focus on how states and peoples interact with other states, regional or global political organisations, and social movements in an increasingly interdependent world.
