Overview

Throughout the Global Governance and Diplomacy course from University of Leeds you will gain a deeper understanding of the transnational nature of governance and diplomacy. You will analyse the transnational governance regimes that seek to address global challenges, questioning why such regimes succeed or fail. You will also examine the politics underpinning current diplomatic practice and the obstacles to change.

The practical focus of the course will ensure you are well-equipped to succeed in this field, with advanced knowledge of lobbying, report writing, negotiating, and campaigning.

Career opportunities:

This course provides students with the skills, experience and expertise required to pursue a fruitful career within international organisations and their member states, or non-governmental organisations. The combination of an academic and practical focus will allow you to develop both the knowledge and skills to succeed in global governance.
