Hello again! In my last blog post <\/a>I told you about some of the fantastic extra-curricular activities available to students in\u00a0the School of Politics at the University of York. This time, I thought I’d tell you more about the courses and study options available!<\/p>\n

The School of Politics at York offers a range of interesting\u00a0courses all of which allow you to specialise based on what you’re interested in. They include Politics, Politics with International Relations, International Relations and a range of joint honours courses. I take Politics with International Relations and particularly enjoy learning about International Politics, specifically conflict and the United States. I\u00a0have had the opportunity to select modules such as ‘US National Security after the Cold War’ and ‘Global Politics of Nuclear Weapons’ (although the module choices\u00a0may change from year to year). The department offers modules on anything from International Human Rights to The Labour Party and Socialism in the UK.<\/p>\n

First Year<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

In\u00a0my first year I took four modules – this meant I had two hour-long lectures and one\u00a0seminar per module, per week.<\/p>\n

Each was assessed at the halfway point in January, which counted for 40% of my\u00a0module mark. Then, during\u00a0the summer assessment period, we were assessed again,\u00a0counting for 60% of the module mark.<\/p>\n

The four modules we take in our\u00a0first year are all core modules. This means\u00a0everyone studying a Politics subject will have the same grounding, before selecting more specific choices in second and third year.<\/p>\n

The core modules I had in first year were:<\/p>\n

What is Politics?<\/strong><\/p>\n

This module introduces\u00a0the main theoretical concepts used in the study of politics.\u00a0It covers issues including globalisation, terrorism, the EU, migration and climate change.<\/p>\n

\"politics-word-cloud-17738237\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Introduction to Democratic Politics<\/strong><\/p>\n

This module involves exploring the concept of democracy and its problems and limitations, before applying this study to three distinct cases in the second term.<\/p>\n

\"Elections\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Introduction to International Politics\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

This module explores the development of the global political economy and considers broad themes and ideas in International Relations.<\/p>\n

\"International<\/a><\/p>\n

Introduction to Political Theory\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

This module engages with key political texts which are central to our understanding of politics and how it works today. You’ll explore in detail the concepts of\u00a0Justice, Freedom, Power while reading texts from the cannon of western political thought.<\/p>\n

\"1165\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Second Year<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

As in first year you’ll take four\u00a0modules, running all year. The standard assessment is\u00a0an essay in January, counting for 40% of the module mark, and by an exam in the summer assessment period, counting for 60% of the module mark.<\/p>\n

Some modules are core \u2013 it depends which pathway you\u2019re on. Everyone will take Political Enquiry, and those on an International Relations programme take\u00a0‘Theories of International Relations’ too.<\/p>\n

For your other three\u00a0second year modules, you’ll have the opportunity to choose from a range of diverse interesting topics, one of which must include a political text module. For my second year, they\u00a0included:<\/p>\n

Political Text Modules:<\/strong>\u00a0History of Political Thought; Contemporary Political Philosophy; State, Economy and Society.<\/p>\n

Political Process Modules:\u00a0<\/strong>Comparative Politics;\u00a0The European Union: Politics and Policies;\u00a0Human Right and Wrongs in a Globalized World;\u00a0Politics in the United Kingdom;\u00a0Politics of Development;\u00a0US National Security after the Cold War;\u00a0War and Peace<\/p>\n

In my second year I chose to study “History of Political Thought” which gives an interesting perspective on the development of liberalism, human nature, property ownership, sovereignty and the organisation of society. I also took\u00a0“US National Security after the Cold War” which developed my understanding of US foreign policy and has directed the focus of my third year dissertation. Finally I took “War and Peace” in which the lecturer invited guest speakers to help develop our understanding of the issues we discussed. Particularly memorable was a lecture given by Patrick Bury – author of acclaimed book “Callsign Hades” and former NATO analyst and Captain in the British Army – on Counter Insurgency in Afghanistan.<\/p>\n

Third Year<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Third year works slightly differently to the first two years. We select four\u00a0option modules, two\u00a0per term, and then the compulsory dissertation runs all year. There is an\u00a0hour-long dissertation workshop each week. Each module is assessed by essay, counting for 100% of the module mark.<\/p>\n

Third Year modules include\u00a0for\u00a0example:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Africa and International Politics;\u00a0Border Politics;\u00a0British Foreign Policy after the Cold War;\u00a0Comparative Political Participation;\u00a0Dictatorship;\u00a0Economic Governance of the European Union;\u00a0Global Justice;\u00a0Governance of Security; Global Politics of Nuclear Weapons;\u00a0Governing the Global Economy;\u00a0Green Politics,\u00a0Political Transition in the Middle East;\u00a0The European Far Right;\u00a0The Labour Party and Socialism;\u00a0War, Humanitarianism and Law.<\/p>\n

So, as you can see there is a huge range of different and interesting modules to choose from if you come and study at York!<\/p>\n

There is also the option to study on a year abroad or do a year in industry on all Politics courses, giving you the opportunity to increase your skills and employability.<\/p>\n

So whether you’re more interested in British domestic politics, International Relations or both, York has it all!<\/p>\n

I'm a third year Politics with International Relations student. I'm originally from Essex but love living in the beautiful city of York. I'm a massive foodie but also enjoy reading, travel and listening to music. I'm a member of the Politics Society committee and am really looking forward to sharing some of my university experiences with you!","image":{"src":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/?s=200&d=mm&r=g","width":200,"height":200,"alt":""}},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/peJQl8-Aa","jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2016\/12\/249981355503209_university-of-york.jpg?fit=600%2C220&ssl=1","custom_fields":{"_edit_lock":["1484225473:64"],"_edit_last":["64"],"_pp_is_autodraft":["1"],"_yoast_wpseo_primary_category":["59"],"_thumbnail_id":["2282"],"_publicize_pending":["1"],"_yoast_wpseo_content_score":["30"],"_jetpack_related_posts_cache":["a:1:{s:32:\"6a61e33adaa9b14363e4ee954495980c\";a:2:{s:7:\"expires\";i:1619485128;s:7:\"payload\";a:6:{i:0;a:1:{s:2:\"id\";i:429;}i:1;a:1:{s:2:\"id\";i:644;}i:2;a:1:{s:2:\"id\";i:3652;}i:3;a:1:{s:2:\"id\";i:6416;}i:4;a:1:{s:2:\"id\";i:589;}i:5;a:1:{s:2:\"id\";i:6339;}}}}"]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2242","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/97"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2242"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2242\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2282"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2242"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2242"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2242"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
