O que eu aprenderei?

COURSE OVERVIEW

An MA by Research in Politics at Swansea enables you to undertake a substantial project led by your own passions and interests.

It represents a highly respected qualification which can present a pathway to a career in academia, or widen your scope for employment in fields such as education, government or the private sector.

Your project will take one year full-time or two years part-time. It is suitable if you want to undertake a first research degree as an isolated culmination of taught studies, or if you are considering further research.

You will submit a thesis of up to 40,000 words, demonstrating original research with a substantial contribution to the subject. This is followed by an oral examination of the thesis (a viva voce examination, or viva).

• European political thought
• Democratic theory
• Devolution
• Comparative elections
• Public sector reform
