Ever wanted to take part in a session with a United Nations official? Ask a European Parliament official about world politics? Take part in career workshops led by UN officials? Or explore how NGOs influence the work of international organisations such as the World Health Organisation?
These events, open to all students, are part of an exciting and immersive learning experience (23 March-1 April), offered by the School of Social Sciences, through which you will gain unique exposure to leading international organisations such as the United Nations; learn about their structure and activities; interact with high profile policy makers; and, take part in interactive workshops to prepare for careers at such organisations.
