International Security and Development MA

The MA in International Security and Development introduces you to the major issues and critical debates within a profoundly serious field. <br/><br/>Security, violence and conflict are now central to international politics and development policy discourse. Understanding the modern world demands a full appreciation of conflict and violence.<br/><br/>In this course you explore coverage of ‘traditional’ security issues such as war and conflict, in addition to ‘non-traditional’ issues such as economic security, environmental security, health and migration.<br/><br/>Capitalising on departmental expertise in security, you will receive an advanced introduction to the main approaches in the study of security. <br/><br/>These approaches cover realism, securitization theory, feminist approaches, critical theory and poststructuralism.<br/><br/><strong>Visit our website for more information on fees, scholarships, postgraduate loans and other funding options to study at Swansea University.</strong>
