The term 'globalisation' embraces a range of deeply transformative political, economic and social processes; understanding presents major theoretical and practical challenges for those working or intending to work in the realms of government, business or academia; the course not only equips students to understand globalisation, but also to think in an informed manner about questions of its 'governance'; that is, how globalisation might be steered or developed in a politically and ethically satisfactory manner; the course provides knowledge and understanding not only of the key debates and perspectives upon globalisation, governance and international relations, but also of the different sectors of the emerging global political system.

Location

The University is just a 20-minute walk – or a short bus ride – from Uxbridge underground station, so it is a straightforward journey into central London. There is also a night bus that can bring you from central London to the edge of the campus. The town of Uxbridge itself, which still has buildings dating back to its time as a Georgian market town, is a thriving commercial and business centre. Its major shopping complexes, The Pavilions and the Chimes Centre, boast a wide range of shops, cafes and a nine-screen multiplex cinema.
