What is the difference between the MSc IR / MSc IR Research and the MSc Global Politics?
Although the two programmes ‘MSc in International Relations’ and ‘MSc in Global Politics’ share certain options and are both concerned with world politics, they are distinctive in their approaches and concerns. The MSc in International Relations is primarily concerned with inter-state relations; it is based in the theories and paradigms that are central to International Relations as a distinctive discipline, and these are the focus of its core course. The MSc in Global Politics has ‘globalization’ as its central unifying theme, its core course is focused on arguments about how world politics are shifting from an ‘inter-state’ to a ‘global’ framework and it encompasses contributions from Political Science, Development Studies and International Relations.

Is it advisable to list the MSc IR and the MSc IR Research programmes separately, as choices 1 and 2, as I am really keen to be considered
