International Relations and Politics testimonials

The lecturers are fantastic, and the support you receive during the dissertation is unmatched.

Every lecturer is passionate about their topics and has in-depth knowledge of their subjects. I felt really supported by the teachers who took time to explain and even adapt their assessment systems.

I can’t praise the lecturers enough regarding the support they offered to us. They really went above and beyond to ensure we were enjoying our experience.

The undergraduate International Relations and Politics course at LJMU provides a broad and comprehensive programme. There is something for all students from across the political spectrum.

The freedom to explore real world events… made the learning relevant and compelling. The course offered the opportunity to study various other subjects.

It is not just memorising and recall, you are adopting whole new ways of thinking and most importantly, how to apply them. I consider this a vital life skill, uniquely nourished in the IRP course.

The social aspect of university was important to me. Some of my closest friends in Liverpool were made through the IRP course.

Last year has been the highlight of my time at university as I got to spend the full year studying and living in the Netherlands. Being able to make a whole new community of friends was the best part of the experience for me.

My experience abroad studying in Spain for a year was ace. This experience benefited my degree as it meant that I could improve my writing, presenting and communication skills in a different setting.

The opportunity to spend either one semester or a full year studying abroad at another university is incredible and really helps to broaden and deepen the university experience.
