Education & International Relations & Policy
Professor Steven Puttick
Programme Background
Globalization, geopolitical shifts, and social change are rapidly transforming education and international relations. Understanding how educational systems intersect with international policy, diplomacy, and global governance is critical for shaping inclusive, effective, and globally aware learning environments.
This programme, guided by experts such as Steve Puttick, focuses on the relationship between education, international relations, and policy-making. It explores how educational policies and international frameworks influence teaching practices, cross-cultural collaboration, and global competencies. Students will engage with cutting-edge research on education policy, global governance, international collaboration, and the integration of emerging global issues—such as climate change, digital diplomacy, and cultural heritage—into educational and policy contexts.
The programme aims to develop students’ critical understanding of international education systems, strengthen research and analytical skills, and prepare them for advanced studies or careers in education policy, international development, or global governance.

Programme Description
This programme provides an in-depth exploration of the intersection between education, international relations, and policy. Students will examine how educational frameworks are influenced by global policies and how international governance structures shape teaching and learning across cultures.
Emphasis is placed on contemporary global challenges such as climate change education, digital diplomacy, and the preservation of cultural heritage within educational contexts. Through engagement with advanced research—including teacher training in cross-cultural environments, policy analysis, and international mentorship practices—students will develop critical analytical skills and evidence-based approaches to improving education policy and practice worldwide.
The programme culminates in an applied research project or policy analysis, enabling students to translate theoretical insights into practical solutions for international education and policy challenges.

Published Research Paper Option
Once students have completed the final draft of their papers, they may choose to submit their work to international academic journals indexed by CPCI or EI. We provide guidance and support throughout the submission process for these indexed publications.
The publication fee is £690 per research article, as determined by the journal. Once an article is accepted, it typically becomes searchable on Google and on the journal’s platform approximately seven months after the publication offer is made.
