Course content
This programme engages critically with international development thinking and practice, and more broadly with processes of social, political and economic transformation throughout the global south.
This programme is designed to suit the needs of both recent graduates of various disciplines, and professionals with two to five, or more, years’ experience who want to shift careers, upgrade their academic qualifications, or take a year out to reflect critically on their work.
Although most students will move on after one year to development-related jobs, some may use the programme as a pathway into our PhD in International Development.
