国际公共政策（MSc）

21世纪见证了与恐怖主义，粮食供应，气候变化，迁徙压力和新兴资源地缘政治有关的新型全球挑战。这些挑战本质上是复杂的，多层次的，使政策解决方案成为问题。政治权威也比以往任何时候都更加分散，除了传统民族国家外，还与国际机构，全球政策网络，公私伙伴关系或跨国非政府组织等不同的参与者息息相关。皇家霍洛威的国际公共政策理科硕士课程为学生提供了对政治机构，程序和公共政策在世界事务中的运作方式的详细而系统的理解。该课程将国际关系的学术研究与基于民族国家之外公共政策制定和治理的基于实践的分析结合在一起。
The 21st century is witnessing novel global challenges related to terrorism, food supply, climate change, migratory pressures and emerging resource geo-politics. These challenges are complex and multi-level in nature, rendering policy solutions problematic. Political authority is also more scattered than ever, resting with actors as different as international agencies, global policy networks, public-private partnerships or transnational NGOs, in addition to the traditional nation state.<br><br>Royal Holloway's MSc in International Public Policy provides students with a detailed and systematic understanding of how political institutions, processes and public policies operate in world affairs. The course brings together the academic study of International Relations with a practice-based analysis of public policy formulation and governance beyond the nation-state.<br><br>Drawing from International Relations, public policy and comparative politics, the MSc in International Public Policy will equip you with the theoretical tools and practical skills necessary for an in-depth understanding of policy-making to address contemporary transnational phenomena.<br><br>You will study a mixture of core units and elective options, including a generous choice of free options, and write a supervised dissertation over the summer. Optional modules for the programme cover key policy areas such as US foreign policy, migration and refugees, terrorism, energy and resources or food security, in addition to south Asian politics, EU foreign and security policy, media and war, and international law. Teaching is conducted primarily in small group seminars, supplemented by individual tuition for the dissertation. The course puts a premium on bridging theory and practice, by featuring practice elements and focusing on real world challenges.<br><br>Duration: 1 year full time or 2 years part time
