International Relations Covenant University

Overview

Programme Overview

The  International Relations department from Covenant University is the hub of policy thinking and research, as well as the academic mill and platform from which sound ideas, discourses and political constructs for nation-building emerge. These, coupled with the fact that we run Political Science, Policy and Strategic Studies and International Relations, which are some of the flagship programmes in the University, make us a leading unit, which contributes in dynamic ways to the realization of the medium and term long-goals of the University in “Raising a New Generation of Leaders” to achieve the University Vision of 10:2022. 

 There is provision of methodical and consistent personal support to students to ensure their learning development, which encompasses excellent quality project supervision, advising, individual feedback on their progress, and tutorial support. We offer excellent teaching informed by research and students are provided opportunities to experience research-led learning, through involvement in individual or collaborative research networks. Faculty in PSIR are active researchers in their various areas of research interest as demonstrated by the proven quality research engagements within the departmental research groups, their involvement in funded research projects, their external recognition and their research leadership qualities.
