HUMAN GEOGRAPHY

Human Geography examines the relationships between people, places, and the environment, exploring how these vary across locations and shape human activities and interactions with nature. This Human Geography degree combines perspectives from social sciences and humanities to provide a distinctive understanding of the world. The Human Geography course allows you to investigate human–environment relationships, considering areas such as tourism, urban environments, small islands, and natural hazard management.

Alongside specialising in human geographical dimensions, the Human Geography degree covers a broad range of topics, equipping you with diverse skills to contribute to an environmentally sustainable and socially conscious future.

Liverpool offers an ideal setting to study Human Geography, serving as a living case study of economic, social, and environmental regeneration, while also providing access to rural and coastal landscapes that enhance practical learning experiences.

INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS

International Relations is a part of Political Science. It looks at the global system and its effects on politics. Students learn about nation-states, cooperation, conflict, the causes of war, and the rules that keep order and peace. This International Relations course combines history, sociology, anthropology, media, law, and economics.

Our academic team includes internationally recognised experts. They publish in top peer-reviewed journals and with prestigious academic presses. Their research looks at state behavior and foreign policies. They study the UK, US, EU, and Latin America. They also explore conflict resolution, international law, and regional integration. This course tackles urgent global issues.

Students receive strong career support and practical experience. With help from civil servants and diplomats, they represent the University in model CoP and NATO negotiations. These events, organised by the British International Studies Association in London, help develop diplomatic skills and expand networks.

The "Practitioners in Politics and International Relations" series teams up with the Careers Office and Student Futures. It brings in leaders, like Members of Parliament and the Mayor of Liverpool, to help students explore political careers. Our team supports student engagement with the ‘Civil Service Masterclass.’ This programme, run by ‘Unique and Special Projects,’ is backed by the Department of Education, the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government, and the Metro Mayor.
