100% satisfaction for International Relations course
Dr Rachel Julian, Course Leader, said: “This is a great indicator of the time, passion and energy the whole course team put into their teaching, and of how much the students enjoy and participate in the course. It's a challenging time to be teaching on global issues, but I think this result shows that students and staff really care about learning and about the challenges we face. We're delighted with the news, especially as we get ready for a new year."
External examiners commented that the group have shown good innovation in providing varied and interesting assessments across the degree, and praised the team for the depth of feedback.
Earlier this year, Dr Julian was awarded an International Curriculum Fellowship from the Centre for International Nonviolent Conflict.
The award enables and supports Dr Julian in developing the curriculum at our University, at undergraduate and postgraduate level, in the area of nonviolence and civil resistance. The award makes additional resources available to our students and supports the recording of lectures by guest speakers.
Dr Julian’s 20 years of experience in peace and community work includes campaigning, education, social enterprise and community development. Before working full time at our University she was a Fundraising Director for Nonviolent Peaceforce, an external evaluator and worked with Community Foundations.
