University courses
Search degrees, check A-level, IB Diploma or AP subjects, or follow a pathway from school subjects to a career. None of these tools is an offer of a place.
Explore a pathway
Move between school subjects, a degree and possible work. A link is not an offer and not proof that a degree is enough for a regulated job.
Choose a branch, then a course.

GCSE and IGCSE preparation
- English and mathematics
Often expected at GCSE or IGCSE. Grade thresholds differ, and International GCSEs are not automatically the same as GCSEs.
A-level subjects
Nothing to show for this stage yet.
University courses
- International Relations
A specific A level is usually not required.
- Mathematics
An alternative or related degree, not automatically an equivalent qualification.
- Economics
An alternative or related degree, not automatically an equivalent qualification.
- Journalism
An alternative or related degree, not automatically an equivalent qualification.
Possible careers
- Newspaper or magazine journalist
Alternative route. Useful background. Newsrooms do not reserve jobs for this degree.
- Translator
Related, but not enough on its own. International relations does not train you as a translator.
- Economist
Related, but not enough on its own. It is not an economics degree, even when a module covers the global economy.
This is a possible educational route, not an offer of a place and not a prediction of a job. Direct, common, alternative and postgraduate routes are not the same thing.
