The MA in International Relations is designed for those who are seeking academic preparation for a career in international affairs with an Asian-Pacific focus, whether in diplomacy, the civil service, teaching, journalism, or business. It also caters for those requiring a foundation for doctoral studies in international relations.

Applicants should  have obtained at least a Distinction average in their bachelor degree, or the equivalent. The degree should be in any discipline of the social sciences or the humanities. Those with a bachelor degree with Distinction average in a  non-cognate discipline will be admitted to the Master's Foundation program for a semester.

As a guide, Distinction refers to an A/B+ average, 2(1) Honours in the British system, and 14/20 in the French system.
