"summary": "**Overview**\n\nThis degree gives you a unique opportunity to gain a double MA in International Relations from both UEA and Ritsumeikan University in Japan. You’ll spend your first year at UEA, then your second year at Ritsumeikan—subject to government health advice at the time. \n\nYou’ll explore the major challenges shaping global politics today, including terrorism, poverty, war, climate change, famine, pandemics, gender inequality, financial crises, transnational crime and underdevelopment. This double MA equips you with the knowledge and skills to understand and address these issues within the international system. \n\nYou’ll also get the chance to live and study in Japan, gaining fresh insights and a global perspective on international relations. \n\nA key highlight of the course is a potential study trip to Brussels, where you’ll visit the European Union and NATO, engage with academics, politicians and officials, and explore a range of international organisations, NGOs and think tanks. This trip’s subject to government health advice. \n\nThroughout the programme, you’ll join discussions and learning sessions with experts and representatives from major international bodies like the European Institute for Asian Studies, International Committee of the Red Cross, World Health Organization and UNESCO—all subject to current health guidance. \n\nRecent graduates have gone on to careers in business, teaching, research, journalism and international organisations such as the United Nations, European Union and NATO. \n\n**Disclaimer**\n\nCourse details are subject to change. You should always confirm the details on the provider's website: **www.uea.ac.uk**",
