International relations and international development are at the heart of many important issues today.
These are the matters that concern citizens, governments and charities across the world. International Relations graduates can go on to make a real difference in a range of ways, at home and abroad.
Generally, careers in international affairs exist across three sectors: public, private and non-profit/NGO. You can expect to find work within NGOs, think tanks, governments, international organisations, multinational companies, development consulting firms and more.
