International Relations with a Year Abroad
Summary

Are you curious about how the world works? Do you wonder how we can find a collective response to urgent global issues such as climate change, conflict and warfare, emerging technologies, global inequality, and racism? If so, then you're already on your way to thinking like an international relations student. And studying International Relations with us is a sure way to gain a deeper understanding of these global issues.  

Our International Relations with a Year Abroad undergraduate degree will help you better understand the dynamics of a constantly changing world. You’ll explore global issues and theories, learn how to challenge, collect and analyze information, construct arguments, and communicate your ideas in different ways. This will be done through core modules providing you with theoretical and applied foundations in international studies, as well as through a large choice of optional modules helping you tailor your course to your own interests and goals.  

At UEA, you’ll be taught by cutting-edge specialists in international relations. You’ll develop the ability to think critically about regional, national, and international politics from Europe to the Indo-Pacific, to understand international issues such as combating climate change and the spread of weapons of mass destruction, and to interrogate structures such as the historical racial hierarchy of the modern world.  

Our BA International Relations with a Year Abroad course prepares you for a variety of career paths in the private, public, and not-for-profit sectors. Your personal adviser and dedicated School career adviser work with you to help you obtain the knowledge and skills you need to pursue your passion and make a difference. We also offer opportunities to take part in study trips, internships and placements, as well as an extended period of study abroad.  

On this version of the course, you’ll have the exciting opportunity to spend your third year studying at one of our partner institutions across the globe. 

Placement Year and Study Abroad


This 4-year version of the course gives you the opportunity to spend the third year of your degree studying with one of UEA's many partner institutions across the globe, which offers teaching in your subject and in English. Destinations range from Japan to Hong Kong, Australia, Europe, Latin America, and Canada and the USA. 

Studying Abroad gives you the opportunity to broaden your academic and social horizons, giving you opportunities to develop your confidence and communication skills, while bringing a unique element to your CV that will help you stand out to prospective employers. Availability at our partner institutions does vary from year to year and we always recommend you bring an open mind about your destination preference. You'll also need to meet certain academic progression requirements (scoring an aggregate of 55% in your first- and second-year assessments). If for this or for any other reason you were to decide you were unable to spend your third year abroad, you can transfer to a 3-year version of your degree at any time.
