Overview

“Politics is the art of the possible, the attainable — the art of the next best”― Otto von Bismarck.

Welcome to the world of Political Studies. Political studies is concerned with the theory and practice of local, state, national, and international governance and politics. Politics is the study of the connections between the individual, the state, the government, public affairs, and public policy. Political Studies investigate the dynamics of these interactions in the context of conflicting views, values, and interests, particularly in the pursuit of various public goals, such as political power and government control. Politics is thus both a study of conflict and a study of how these competing interests reach a compromise and cooperation.

This extensive Political Studies course will explore a new horizon of politics, the basic concept of human freedom, and International law. This will open more doors for you to shine in your career.

Here are a few important skills you will achieve from our course:

  • The fundamental matters of the state

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
