The program offers a major in International Relations on both the Hobart and Launceston campuses.
Studying International Relations helps you understand issues concerned with conflict and cooperation at the highest level of political analysis. You can choose to study international security, international justice, international law and human rights, international organisations such as the United Nations, the foreign policies of major powers, the politics of terrorism, globalisation and international political economy, and many other topics. Your studies will provide you with critical perspectives on the forces shaping the world in which we live, and help will you understand how we in Australia can relate to others in our region, and to the international community in general.
