MA International Studies

“I was impressed by the outstanding quality of the teaching staff who applied modern teaching method”

I work in the Division for Policy Planning in the Ministry of Defence of the Republic of Macedonia as head of the Section for Defence Resources Management and I was attracted by the MA in International Studies because it was a very well structured and balanced programme. I also wanted to build on my military education, enhance my knowledge of International Relations to perform better in my current job.

I was impressed by the outstanding quality of the teaching staff who applied modern teaching methods. My personal tutor was always prepared to give helpful guidance and friendly encouragement and I received both enthusiasm and patience from my dissertation supervisor. I particularly enjoyed the excellent blend of students and lecturers from across the globe who brought different views of the world politics.

I was keen to spend a year in such a famous university town. Once here I took full advantage of the close vicinity of the University of Oxford and its libraries, where Oxford Brookes students can find any additional books and materials they might need. Oxford more than lived up to my expectations as well as being quiet, peaceful and picturesque, I found it to be a vibrant cosmopolitan city with friendly people who openheartedly accept students from all over the world.

I am very happy I chose Oxford Brookes University. It is a top-performing modern university, which offers a high quality learning opportunity. It is a university I would recommend to anybody who is eager for knowledge and friendship.
