Overview

You will spend your first year at University College London (UCL) SSEES and your second year at a partner university in the SSEES region.

Our Economy, State and Society - Politics and Security programme is designed to attract and challenge the brightest students, as well as professionals wishing to retrain to acquire European expertise, and meet the challenges of the changing global environment. Evidence of English language ability is essential but there are no other language pre-requisites.

Employability

Our graduates progress to careers in governmental or international organisations, and many specialise in finance, commerce, analysis or consultancy.
Others begin careers in diplomacy, journalism, or in non-governmental organisations. Others have continued to further study with many students undertaking PhDs.

Networking

SSEES scholars have developed strong links with a range of institutions in London, including the Foreign & Commonwealth Office, EBRD (European Bank for Reconstruction and Development), Roubini Global Economics, NGOs such as Health Prom, Amnesty International and others through the BEARR Trust, Chatham House (Royal Institute of International Affairs), as well as with the European Commission. SSEES also cultivates connections with the London embassies of the region, which regularly co-sponsor round-table events and lectures by leading international figures relevant to our area interests.
