Politics courses

Our approach

Our MA in International Political Communication, framed with a sociological approach, draws on our expertise in political campaigns, political rhetoric, and international diplomacy and public relations. Our MA in Political Psychology takes a tripartite approach: psychosocial, psychoanalytic and psychology-based strands inform our expertise and teaching, as we explore the forces which underpin political life-worlds.

Experienced staff

Our academic team has wideranging expertise, grounded in years of research within fields such as the psychology of leadership, ecopsychology, voter behaviour, public diplomacy, and political campaigning.

We have cultivated links with research institutions and universities across the globe, and our student cohorts are international, e.g. from the UK, Turkey, the USA, Chile, the Philippines, Nigeria, Germany, and more.

Innovative research

The team delivering these courses is knowledgeable and well-connected. Their innovative research includes the publication of numerous books on political matters. Their contacts include the Freud Museum, the UK House of Lords, the European Parliament, and local, national and international charities and pressure groups. They are passionate about researching politics and are looking forward to working with you.
