International Relations deals with the study of all aspects of the relations between nation-states, including political, diplomatic, military, economic, and environmental relations, among others. It also deals with the relations between non-state actors across national boundaries, and with international organizations that facilitate relations between countries. The International Relations faculty at Texas A&M have considerable expertise in several major subfields of International Relations, including International Conflict, International Political Economy, and Foreign Policy Decision-making. The predominant orientation of the International Relations faculty is to contribute to the accumulation of social scientific knowledge on international relations by using cutting-edge formal, statistical, and/or experimental methods to produce rigorous theoretical and empirical research on important substantive questions. As a consequence, students selecting International Relations as a major field must develop methodological skills sufficient to pursue rigorous mainstream theoretical and empirical research in the field.
