The system of states, the factors which influence their behaviour and the ways in which they organise relations between them, are studied in International Relations . Social Anthropology is concerned with the variety of cultural solutions to the dilemmas of social existence, with particular attention to people often called primitives, or peasants, or cultural minorities. Population Studies considers the implications of population growth, migration, fertility and mortality from a range of viewpoints. Industrial Relations analyses the relationships between workers, trade unions, management and the state in advanced industrial societies. A study of Accounting and Finance demonstrates how wealth is measured and managed, and how that process influences the management of organisations.
Management emphasises the application of theory to the practical running of organisations.
The degrees Students of the School study for degrees of the University of London. Our students go on to a range of careers which are rarely restricted by the choice of degree subject. We believe that success in your degree and in your subsequent career is best achieved by choosing subjects that interest you and that you are good at. We believe that, for what we offer, a high level of academic ability and commitment is more important than previous subject knowledge. Teaching methods LSE believes in a traditional approach to teaching, ensuring students have a solid understanding of their subjects.
