For the last two years, the politics and international relations track has given me the opportunity to study the politics of the modern world and a cross section of the centuries of philosophy that underpin it. This year, from a selection of every major region, I chose to focus on the Middle East, and the course has given a real insight into topics that seem to be more often discussed than understood, like the Arab Spring and the Syrian Civil War.

From supervisors through to my Director of Studies, I think the staff here have really found the balance between giving us time and pushing us to our potential, and going through the course with a tight knit group of Jesus Human, Social, and Political Sciences students has made it all the better.
