International Relations Online Insights
The International Relations Online Insights programme provides a fantastic opportunity for inquisitive young learners to experience studying law. This pre-university online course is specifically designed for high school and secondary school participants, aged between 13-18 years old.
International Relations Online Insights Course for Participants
In this online law course, you will explore both theory and practice as you explore the legal traditions that find their roots in Cambridge, and learn how to deliver a clear, convincing, and well-articulated argument. You will consider how the current legal system can be improved and put your understanding of legal processes to the test as you participate in a virtual trial of your own. Our Law Online Insights course comprises much of the same teachings from our in-person Law summmer school programmes in Oxford and Cambridge University, and transforms them to an easy-to-use virtual platform. Participants will take part in virtual seminars, future skills workshops, one-to-one tutorials, as well as group social activities led by current Oxbridge undergraduates.

What Do Our Alumni Say?
I was a bit worried as I do not know much about law and what area I wanted to do, but when I started to explore my ideas with my tutor, she helped me to finally find out the specific law I would like to do in the future; family law.

Sample International Relations Modules
Module 1 - The Middle East in International Relations
Home to the world’s three great religions and harbouring massive quantities of oil and gas, the Middle East seems to invite geopolitical attention almost by default. Nowhere else are the failings of economic and political development so closely intertwined in producing international conflict. In this module, you will explore the key international actors in this region.
Module 2 - The Role of Ideas in International Relations
As new global priorities have emerged in recent decades, nation states and other global actors have increasingly demonstrated their ‘social’ side in such fields as climate change, international human rights, and international aid. This class explores the role of ideas in IR, an approach that is typically captured by the term “Constructivism”.
Module 3 - The Project of a European Union
Today, the EU has a total population of more than 500 million people. What are the strengths and weaknesses of the European Union in today’s increasingly globalised world? This module focuses on understanding the internal structure of the EU and assesses its capabilities as a political actor in internal and external affairs.
Module 4 - United Nations Simulation
You will be assigned a country to represent at a high-level diplomatic meeting of the UN Security Council and to write a position paper about your country’s foreign policy regarding a topical political scenario. You must then present and defend your country’s position on the matter, working to form alliances in accordance with its goals.
