• Degree modules in Global Development Studies focus on the study of and engagement with inequalities between societies, within global contexts. Most importantly, students in Global Development Studies examine problems of poverty, exploring how the economic disadvantages suffered by some communities develop in relation to the advantages enjoyed by others.
  • Given the interdisciplinary character of Global Development Studies, though, students are strongly encouraged to situate and analyze global poverty in relation to inequalities and differences arising across the broad range of economic, social, political, environmental, and cultural factors with which communities must deal in the world today.
