This programme is interdisciplinary, involving history, political science, and international relations, as well as sociology and social psychology, risk studies, and even critical approaches. Depending upon the pathway chosen and the mix of options within each pathway, the focus of the degree will vary from a strong emphasis on security and counterterrorism issues through to a critical social science approach and analysis of societal response and adaptation. Based on the multi-dimensional and multi-disciplinary nature of the phenomenon, the programme provides an overview of the theories and paradigms related to the concepts of terrorism and counter terrorism in order to enable students to undertake further research or enter into careers targeted at understanding these issues.
