This MA provides students with key analytical skills to study the ethical dimensions of public policy. The programme, drawing on three areas of excellence at UCL, offers a distinctive mix of politics, law and philosophy, centred on the normative evaluation of public policy at both the domestic and international levels. This MA provides you with the key analytical skills to evaluate the ethical dimensions of law, politics, and public policy. The programme is centred on the normative analysis of public life at both the domestic and international levels. The programme is best suited to students who wish to develop their understanding of the major issues in legal and political theory for further research or a career beyond academia in a related field. Applicants should have ideally have a background in a degree in a subject relevant to Legal and Political Theory [e.g. Law, Philosophy, Political Science, Economics, International Relations] or in other subjects with heavily weighted modules in related topics [e.g. moral philosophy, jurisprudence, intellectual history or sociology]. We will also consider applications from those with a particularly strong track record in other disciplines.
As a minimum, an upper second-class Bachelor's degree from a UK university in political theory or a related discipline; or an overseas qualification of an equivalent standard. Relevant practical or work experience in a related field may also be taken into account.
