MSt in International Relations Open Day

The MSt in International Relations (MSt in IR) will be hosting an Open Day on 3 October 2024. The Open Day will begin with a presentation, speakers and Q&A at 5.30pm (BST) with a drinks reception immediately following. The event will take place both in person at the Alison Richard Building and online via Zoom. A recording will also be available on this site after the event if you cannot attend.

At the Open Day we hope to give you a flavour of what you can expect from the MSt in IR course. You will hear from and be able to ask questions of MSt in IR professors, representatives from some of the colleges that host our students, and current members of the 2023-25 cohort will join us to share their first hand experiences. 

The deadline has passed to be able to attend in person. If you would like to attend this event online, please register here or by emailing mst-intrelations@polis.cam.ac.uk. 

If you have a particular topic which you would like us to address on the day, you are welcome to include this with your message.

The Master of Studies (MSt) in International Relations is offered by the Department of Politics and International Studies and provides a two-year, part-time route to a Cambridge Master's degree. The  programme is designed for individuals who wish to undertake postgraduate study while pursuing their careers. Our students use the knowledge and analytical skills acquired on the course to further develop their careers in areas as diverse as international organisations, NGOs, teaching, blue chip companies, the civil service, the armed forces, finance, law, film-making, transport and business. We also welcome recent graduates wishing to continue their studies on a part-time basis.

If you are passionate about global politics, international history, international law, the environment and economic affairs then this course is for you. For many of our professional students the course provides a good alternative to an MBA or a route to further graduate study in international politics of related disciplines.
