Bachelor of International Studies - International Relations

The Bachelor of International Studies is focused on developing language skills and knowledge of global issues from the perspective of relevant social science disciplines. The program consists of three components: core studies, a language major and an international studies major. You'll complement these studies with a compulsory overseas exchange semester to enhance the development of your cross-cultural understanding and communication skills. You can choose from a comprehensive range of courses, all of which provide grounding in the political, social and communicative aspects of international and global issues. Your semester abroad gives you the opportunity to experience living, studying and maybe even travelling in another country. A great experience, but also something that demonstrates to future employers that you’re able to function well outside your comfort zone. Combining this semester abroad with your language also allows you to ‘bed down’ that language and move a step closer to fluency. Whether ordering fresh croissants from a boulangerie in Paris, a plate of empanadas from a café in Buenos Aires or a bowl of kimchi in Seoul, your exchange semester abroad will be an unforgettable experience.

The major in international relations will give students comprehensive understanding of the nature and exercise of power in world politics, the origins, constitution and development of the international system, how ideas shape order, justice and security, Australia's role in global affairs, the interplay between domestic, international and transnational politics, and a range of state and non-state actors. It will provide students with comprehensive knowledge of core issues in world politics, and different theoretical approaches and conceptual frameworks for understanding world politics. Graduates of this major will be able to apply theories of, and concepts in, international relations to make sense of world politics, problem-solve in complex political terrains, critically analyse and synthesise information to provide guidance in foreign policy, think strategically and ethically about national interests, communicate effectively, apply their knowledge to a rapidly shifting global landscape, and translate learning into policy, engagement and impact. Graduates of this major will be global citizens, aware of and sensitive to cultural difference, and motivated to make positive change through global engagement.
