The distribution of power and wealth has a fundamental impact on agency and opportunity for billions of people. With our MA, you’ll explore these connections in a rapidly changing and contested global context – taking an eclectic approach to issues such as trade, finance, development and global governance. Combine classical theories with the realities of today’s world order as you learn from one of the largest concentrations of International Political Economy scholars.
As an international student, choosing where to pursue my master’s was a serious decision. Warwick's reputation and the strength of its research community immediately stood out. What I didn't expect was how much the programme would shift the way I think. Before starting the MA in International Political Economy, I had so many unanswered questions that an Economics background alone couldn't address. This course has been genuinely eye-opening, helping me understand the global order better and giving me a much clearer sense of what I want to pursue in the future. Warwick has a unique way of making you feel both challenged and supported throughout.
