The MLitt in Terrorism and Political Violence is a taught postgraduate programme run by the Handa Centre for the Study of Terrorism and Political Violence , Europe’s oldest terrorism research centre, based in the School of International Relations.
This MLitt programme explores terrorism as a phenomenon, with a focus on the history of terrorism as a concept and as a term, the different forms and causes of political violence, and why individuals and groups become involved in violence of this nature.
Throughout your time, you will critically examine selected approaches to researching and studying terrorism and counterterrorism and consider the roles and responsibilities of various actors as they formulate a response to terrorism in its many forms.
As a research intensive institution, the University ensures that its teaching references the research interests of its staff, which may change from time to time. As a result, programmes are regularly reviewed with the aim of enhancing students' learning experience. Our approach to course revision is described online .
