Bachelor of International Relations (3 Year Program)

Bond’s Bachelor of International Relations (3-year Program) is only available to international students. Domestic students, please see Bachelor of International Relations.

In the globalised world of the 21st Century, every country is affected by what happens beyond its borders. Prosperity and security are impacted by international politics; business opportunities and trade are dependent on global partnerships and agreements.
Bond’s Bachelor of International Relations offers a fascinating exploration of the interconnected web of international relationships and the factors that shape them: from politics, ideologies, diplomacy, and governance, to war and peace, food security and the impact of climate change on our collective future.
This program takes you on a voyage of discovery into the politics, economics, and diplomacy of key geographic regions. You will develop an in-depth understanding of global matters of concern.

The Bachelor of International Relations (3-year Program) is designed for international students who prefer to study two semesters per year (rather than the usual Bond model of three semesters per year). Your classes will be held in the January and September semesters of each year so you will complete the degree over three years.

Students who have completed Year 12 in Australia or equivalent secondary studies in other countries.
