Course options

Course summary

Our Masters course focuses on diplomacy from a gender-inclusive perspective and also introduces you to key concepts and debates in Gender Studies. We collaborate with the United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR) to deliver this course. You’ll learn about global gender identities and their importance in diplomacy. You will reflect upon how to create gender-inclusive environments when dealing with international conflicts and will think about the importance of creating inclusive environments. You’ll have the chance to apply your knowledge at the United Nations. You can also enhance your employability by submitting a digital project instead of a traditional dissertation. This project might involve designing online campaigns on digital platforms to support charities and state institutions, aiming to address gender inequalities.

Assessment method

Assessments vary and may include learning logs, critical reviews, presentations (individual and group), reflective essays, literature reviews, research projects, and academic essays. The assessments are designed to enable students to develop a range of academic and transferable skills and to provide multiple opportunities for feedback and development. Feedback and Guidance sessions with teaching staff are available in all modules. You will also have the opportunity to submit a Dissertation, a Digital Project, or a Policy Paper at the end of the course.


Entry requirements
