About Diplomacy and Foreign Policy, MA - at University of Exeter

  • This MA provides a deep understanding of the historical, legal, and theoretical aspects of diplomacy and foreign policymaking, combined with practical, skills-based learning through simulations and real-world applications.
  • It enhances employability by equipping students with analytical and practical skills valued by employers across public and private sectors, preparing them for leadership roles in government, international organisations, NGOs, think tanks, and media.
  • Students will gain hands-on experience through applied learning, particularly in the second core module, which involves practical exercises such as simulations, workshops, and a field trip to key diplomatic institutions in London.
  • The London field trip will include visits to governmental and non-governmental organisations, such as the Houses of Parliament, think tanks, foreign embassies, and international organisations, providing valuable networking and career development opportunities.
  • Students will develop transferable skills, such as geopolitical risk assessment and policy execution, enabling them to respond effectively to dynamic global challenges and engage in high-level diplomatic and foreign policy work.
  • Designed for early and mid-career professionals, the MA prepares graduates for various roles, including positions in foreign service, international organisations, and NGOs, leveraging both intellectual insights and practical skills for leadership positions.
