Have you been studying law but want to understand the political context? Is your background in international politics, but you’re looking for insights into how the law shapes political decisions? Or is your Bachelor’s in a liberal arts subject and you want to focus on something more vocational?

Either way, this multi-disciplinary Master’s programme that combines the study of law and politics with a focus on international security may be just what you’re looking for.

War and peace, terrorism, human rights, criminal law – these are all fascinating areas of research that have never been more pertinent than in today’s global society. Which makes the career prospects afterwards just as interesting.
