The MSc Political Science is a wide-ranging programme combining subject-specific study and rigorous methodological training.
The Global Politics stream offers an in-depth analysis of globalisation, global governance and global politics. The core course of the stream draws on cutting-edge political-science research to provide an overview of the changing structure of the global order, and the impact of various dimensions of globalisation on politics within, between, and beyond countries. In addition to completing the core course and a quantitative or qualitative methods course, you will select options from a wide range of courses related to various aspects of global politics and will complete a dissertation on an approved topic of your choice, which will be supervised by a faculty member of the LSE Department of Government. Through close engagement with state-of-the-art quantitative and qualitative political science, graduates from the programme will be able to provide sophisticated analyses of the drivers of continuity and transformation in key areas of global politics.
This programme will be a good preparation for a career in international organisations, government, public policy, political consultancy, security agencies, finance, the media and NGOs, as well as providing an excellent foundation for further research including PhD programmes.
Upper second class honours degree (2:1) or equivalent in any discipline with a considered interest in the area covered by the MSc.
