University of Leeds - International

There is so much more to a degree than its title. That’s why Link to Leeds ambassador Gael wrote his blog to show the Top 5 things you will learn studying Politics at the University of Leeds. A Politics degree is very diverse and multidisciplinary, its strong factors being:

Student Community 👥: you engage and think critically, with a variety of nationalities and backgrounds being displayed in conversations.

Tutors and Professors 👨‍🏫: Teachers are always very supportive of our journey as students. They will teach you how to effectively organise your time and work during your assessments.

Employability 💼: A common misconception about a Politics degree is that it only prepares you for a public sector job, but a Politics degree equips you with many transferable and soft skills, both for the private and public sectors.

Classes and Specialist Pathways 📖: Classes are very varied, with the degree providing a diverse variety of specialties like the Parliamentary Studies and Quantitative Research Methods pathways.

Local Initiatives 🪧: Leeds has a very multi-cultural and socially involved community resulting in a lot of local initiatives run by locals which allow for volunteering opportunities and political projects.
