MSc Development and Security This innovative programme explores the link and tensions between development and security concerns in theory and practice. Specifically, it builds on the unique combination of expertise and experience in the School of Sociology, Politics and International Studies to: • examine the nature of violent conflict in the world today and the international community’s response to it;
• locate this analysis in a comprehensive theoretical understanding of wider development and security studies, debates and controversies, particularly in relation to evolving patterns of global governance;
• explore these issues and dilemmas through contemporary, empirical case studies.
You will take a combination of mandatory and optional taught units within the School of Sociology, Politics and International Studies. This is followed in the summer term by a dissertation.
Bristol graduates are in high demand and have an excellent record of employment following graduation.
Entry requirements: An upper second-class honours degree (or equivalent qualification). Degrees from all disciplines are considered.
MSc East Asian Development and the Global Economy You will explore the development of East Asia within the wider context of global economy and development. You will examine the opportunities, challenges and strategic issues created for international business by the further growth and regional economic integration in East Asia. You will also investigate the developing patterns of trade within East Asia and between East Asian nations and other regions of the world. In addition, you will gain core theoretical knowledge and understanding of development and international political economy.
Students take a combination of mandatory and optional taught units within the School of Sociology, Politics and International Studies. Each is delivered within one of two 12-week teaching blocks and assessed by an essay (or equivalent form of written submission). This is followed in the summer term by a dissertation.
Graduates from our programmes have gone on to work for Refugee UK, Shelter, Barnardos, Amnesty International, government departments and the European Parliament, among others.
Entry requirements: An upper second-class honours degree (or equivalent qualification) in any subject.
MSc International Development This programme is designed for anyone involved in conceptualising or administering policies for a sustainable and substantial level of development in the world’s poorer countries. It is especially suitable if you are already involved in planning development strategies, currently working for non-governmental organisations in the development field or planning for a career in development.
The programme combines an intellectual and academic approach with policy-oriented and empirical studies of development. It addresses three separate, but related, facets of the development process: • analysing what development means; • studying the processes of planning (external aid, regional disparities, environmental factors, poverty and industrialisation);
• examining how development policies may be delivered and administered, analysing the importance of effective political and bureaucratic structures, and evaluating the contributions of NGOs and other external bodies.
Entry requirements: An upper second-class honours degree (or equivalent qualification) in a relevant subject.
