Explore the political and societal forces that drive change in our shared world, with our Bachelor of International Relations. Have you ever wondered how an event in one part of the world can cause supply chain issues elsewhere? Or how international cooperation can address common challenges, like climate change? International relations seek to answer questions like these by examining global politics from a range of competing perspectives. With particular focus on key players, geopolitics and the effects of globalisation, you'll gain an understanding of Australia's foreign and security policies and the crucial discussions that influence their development. Critically analyse how international organisations and countries respond to pressing humanitarian and environmental issues and how these responses impact global peace and development. With a major in Japanese Studies, you'll dive deep into a culture known for its remarkable ability to achieve harmony between tradition and innovation. From the bright, neon lights of ultramodern Tokyo to the serene, historical districts of Kyoto - Japan captivates through contrast. Whether you're looking to improve your fluency or starting from scratch, you'll learn to speak, write and read Japanese with confidence. Explore the fascinating world of global politics and international relations. Improve your communication skills and immerse yourself in different cultures. This degree can open doors for you to a career in foreign affairs, international business or diplomacy.
