University is an exciting time: you can explore topics you’re passionate about, make lifelong friendships, and embrace extracurricular activities and other opportunities.

Soon, you’ll make the first step on your journey, by heading to Flinders Open Days. But with so many worthwhile activities on the schedule, how do you plan the perfect day? Don’t worry, we’ve got you.

Read on for your ideal Open Days itinerary relating to International Relations and Political Science.

Diplomacy is your dream

If your goal is a globe-trotting career, and you have a strong interest in policy, then becoming a diplomat might be for you. There are plenty of ways that studying International Relations and Political Science can lead to a global career, and you can find out more in our International Relations and Political Science information session.  
 
While you’re on campus, don’t miss the Live Digital Art experience, where you can ask questions or make comments about the latest global news while a talented digital artist brings to life the conversation (yes, expect amusing and accurate drawings of politicians). Because economics and politics are closely linked, you should also pay a visit to our Trading Room, which sits above the law courtyard. It’s powered by world-leading software to simulate financial trading markets.

You’re all about Politics

Hear which professions the Dance, Visual Arts, Fashion and Costume Design degrees, offered in collaboration with TAFE SA through Adelaide College of the Arts, can lead to. Back the info session up with an activity and get up close and personal with the catwalk in our immersive fashion parade – those models could be wearing your designs one day.

You want to change the world through Advocacy and Activism

Do you picture yourself working for a not-for-profit? Or maybe you enjoy heading to protests in your spare time? University can be your first step in changing the world. Head to our International Relations and Political Science information session to explore how you could have an impact when it comes to things like environmental security, human rights, or conflict resolution.

You should also bring your bright ideas to our Live Digital Art experience, in which a talented digital artist will bring to life the politically-focused conversation while it’s happening (if you have thoughts about climate change, this is your creative outlet). Another must-see is our activity where you can learn how to Help Fight Hunger in Australia. Take the quiz, and uncover how businesses can do more to source food for people in need. You might even take home a prize.
