Level: Postgraduate
CRICOS: 00002J

We live today in an interconnected and globalised world. Yet conflict continues to impede international cooperation. The world has become more, rather than less, complicated. Being able to understand and evaluate global issues across the social, cultural, legal, political and economic spectrum, therefore, is a highly valued skill that is much desired by government, business and the non-government sector. The Master of International Relations, which is built around innovative approaches and thinking, will empower you to comprehend and evaluate contemporary regional and global developments. It will equip you for an international career in diplomacy, journalism, the NGO sector, international business or academia.
