Diplomacy and International Governance MPhil

This MPhil course is designed to expose you to many different aspects of diplomacy and international governance. Experts from academia and industry will share their insights to guide and support your own discoveries and learning. You will work collaboratively with academic staff and each other to enrich your studies and support local organisations in search of your subject expertise and advanced academic skills. Research is at the heart of the Institute for Diplomacy and International Governance. We are always keen to hear from students who want to develop their own research proposal so if you're interested in addressing complex issues involving modern diplomacy, international security, international business and trade, global communication and information management then pursuing a PhD in our Institute could be for you. As old paradigms and models continue to expose their limitations, there has never been a greater need for a new understanding of how the international arena works. The Institute for Diplomacy and International Governance is currently supervising PhD topics in the fields of EU public diplomacy, securitisation in authoritarian regimes, and UK immigration policy and governance. The Institute also maintains close partnerships and cultural exchange opportunities with a number of leading diplomatic academies and institutes. In turn, the programmes will enable students to develop a network of associates as well as build a unique, pertinent learning experience at Loughborough University London. If you choose to undertake a research programme with us you'll have the opportunity to work with top researchers and industry leaders, and gain first-hand experience of industry centred problem solving. These programmes are a desirable progression route for those aspiring to work directly in the diplomatic sector or for those looking to gain a full understanding of the conduct of international relations within a commercial context. The Institute for Diplomacy and International Governance is ideal for individuals looking for rapid career progression into management and development positions in the global diplomatic, business and security communities.
