Southampton Uni - BSc Politics and International Relations

Hi all,
Does anyone have any info regarding the Politics and International Relations course at Southampton? Is it good / are the teachers good? And what do job prospects look like? It'd not ranked very highly in terms of the course but I know that Southampton is a good university...
Thanks
