Program

Global Security and Borders

Summary

Current information: Borders have become a key site and central concern of global security practices and theory, from the Mexican-United States border to the Mediterranean ports of the EU. The many facets of borders are introduced and analysed in this programme: they are understood as containers of identity, sites of power, and points of weakness where the mobility of people (e.g. terrorists, migrants) and things (e.g. drugs, weapons) can disrupt prevailing forms of security. This programme aims to help students navigate this complex terrain by providing a firm grounding in critical border studies. At the core of this programme is the chance for students to apply their academic insights within a work-based environment with borders/security professionals through the Borders Internship module.

Please Note: Due to external international funding deadlines, International Applicants must apply by Friday 31st January 2025 at 4pm GMT for consideration. The closing date for non-UK/Irish UK/Irish/EU/EEA (or late International Student not applying for consideration of international funding) applicants is Friday 28th March 2025 at 4pm GMT. This is due to a limited number of internships available for this course.

Applications received after the closing deadline of Friday 28th March 2025 at 4pm GMT, will be regarded as LATE and will be considered only if vacancies exist when all applications received by these closing dates have been processed.
