Postgraduate Diploma of International Relations

This program prepares students pursuing professions in Foreign Affairs, International Trade or in Government or Public Service. International Relations programs provide a global perspective with emphasis on regional points of view. This program is innovative, forward-looking and attuned to the dynamics of the globalising world and its multiple diplomatic channels. Professional Outcomes The study of International Relations provides students with an understanding of international life – politically, economically and culturally. This in an invaluable asset for graduates in a wide range of professions, including diplomacy, foreign affairs, defense, government service, business, journalism, teaching, politics, international trade or public service. Entry requirements Completion of a degree program at an approved institution with at least a major in International Relations or similar and normally with a record of performance at Credit (65%) level or better, subject to the decision of the Dean. Subjects taken in the Postgraduate Diploma of International Relations may be credited toward the Master of International Relations. Work Experience and Internships Some students without practical workplace experience, or with workplace experience in a field different from their studies, choose to undertake an internship as part of their degree. This intensely practical professional development approach fosters graduates who are ready, willing and able to hit the ground running and make an immediate impact in the workplace. Attendance Most students undertake four subjects per semester (equivalent to 40 credit points). You may, however, enrol in fewer subjects and extend your degree over a longer period. Bond's Teaching methodology involves a combination of lectures, tutorials, seminars, examinations, projects, presentations, assignments, computer labs and industry projects.
