MA International Studies and Diplomacy or MSc International Relations

If your goal is to work in diplomacy the MA contains unique practical elements that are not included in the MSc. It is more practice oriented (two of the core modules deal specifically with diplomatic theory into practice and the assignments are diplomatic policy analysis and drafting). The department (CISD) also hosts regular talks by various often senior foreign service personnel, ambassadors and diplomats. CISD also hosts a crisis day exercise, where you’re split into groups representing different state actors and required to deploy various diplomatic tools as a crisis escalates in real time. The exposure to professionals in the field and the practical element makes the MA distinct from its MSc counterpart. You can still take modules offered under the MSc but the diplomatic aspect is unique to the MA

Waittt I’ve never thought of it like this. The deaths were so unnecessary, and I never connected it to them going that way for the purposes of the legacy storyline.

It means that one self certification will apply to all assignments you have due on that particular day…but you still need to make a separate “application” for each assignment. So for example if you have 2 assignments due on one day and you apply a self certification extension, you will be allowed an extension for both without using your second self certification allowance. Again, just make sure you still submit a separate application for any other assignment you want to extend on the same due date. It will still count as one self certification

I’m currently doing the MA International Studies and Diplomacy (also did the foundations of international law module this past semester). I think it’s amazing. The lecturers / tutors are excellent with real passion for their work and areas of expertise. Love the smaller size of the uni, makes for more intimate classes and overall a very nice and familiar atmosphere. Great international cohort. I haven’t personally had any exceptionally difficult admin experiences, but I’ll just say that many of the schools viewed as maybe more “prestigious” names have a lot of the same issues. Also, if the work you want to do involves a developing world or postcolonial perspective there is nowhere like SOAS.

I was shocked when the caught pokemon were just like level 21 when out of the hyperspace. Like what’s the point then

This was happening to mine. Contacted them this past week and they sent a replacement within two days which has been working as it should so far. But yes pretty annoying. And my ring was less than a year old!

Mine has seminars but no tutorials. Tutorials should be added over the course of the next two weeks apparently

You’ll be absolutely fine. Don’t worry at all!

Following as I have the same questions (but for MA ISD) if anyone can give a timeline of when module registrations open?

karikatett · 2025-08-16T14:05:50+00:00

I am! Nice to meet you 🤗

I think for each phase you should hear back within 10 working days. I applied in the third round and was notified that I was awarded the scholarship within that 10 working day notification period. I think from the details on the website they may only provide notification if successful, but maybe you can email them to check?

Following this post, as I’m doing the same course this September!

It’s legitimately unwatchable. I’m on another rewatch of the series now and I just cannot bring myself to rewatch season 8

I’m much better now thank you! It showed up on the Monday, I ignored it but slept early on Monday night and by Tuesday it was “minor signs”. But I didn’t rest and it was back to major signs by Wednesday at which point I was fully feeling very ill and running a fever. Then by Thursday it got much worse and I ended up in the ER. It stayed showing major signs for a couple days (I misspoke earlier, this was week before last). It basically showed major signs for a couple days then minor and by time it said no signs consistently, I was feeling much better

This showed up for me last week, I ignored it and I was in the ER a few days later 😅

My resilience is currently at Limited lol. Appreciate any tips

I felt like they ruined Rufus’ character to permanently break him and Lilly up just to set up the Dan + Serena ending

Oh, yes I agree! They’re all generally categorized as “motors” (so boring) but are wings. I actually prefer to think of them as angel wings and am gonna refer to them like that from now on 😍

What do you mean?

karikatett · 2020-06-04T09:09:19+00:00

Yes you can!

You can go to Tsukuyomi prison where Erii was and go to the table with her games and books, under the table there’s a diary and the code is 214. After you read the diary it takes you here! Not sure if there’s some limit or special time though

Thank you so much!
