Welcome to the dynamic and forward-thinking School of Politics and International Relations at the University of Nottingham Malaysia! Established in 2008 as a joint initiative between the University's School of Politics and International Relations and the Department of History, our School has quickly become a leading institution. 

We focus on creating and sharing meaningful knowledge about Politics and International Relations. To achieve this, we actively generate knowledge through high-quality research and scholarship. We are also committed to facilitating student learning through critical inquiry and reflection. We design our curricula to prioritise graduate employability. 

At our School, we benefit from academic input from our UK home schools while exercising growing autonomy over our programmes and curricula. 
 

Our Vision: 

• Create and share meaningful knowledge about Politics and International Relations. 

• Generate knowledge through high-quality research and scholarship. 

• Facilitate student learning through critical inquiry and reflection. 

• Design curricula that prioritise graduate employability. 

• Inform and influence political debate in School expertise, engaging with politicians, policymakers, public service practitioners, social movements, NGOs, and citizens.
