The International Public Policy MSc at UCL provides students with a detailed and systematic understanding of how political institutions, processes and public policies operate in world affairs. The programme brings together the academic study of international relations with analysis of public policy formulation and governance beyond the nation-state. Students are equipped with the theoretical tools and empirical evidence necessary for an in-depth understanding of policy-making within the general theories of international relations, political science, public policy and comparative politics. They develop analytical skills for the study of world politics and the assessment of issues currently facing international policymakers. Graduate destinations both nationally and internationally include: Civil servants in departments in central or local government in the UK and overseas; Policy officers and researchers for UK members of parliament and Members of the European Parliament; The European Commission (for example through internships).
