About this course

Our PPE degree will prepare students to be changemakers who can make sense of the world and understand the action required to solve social problems. This course provides you with the opportunity to gain a wide understanding of the political, economic systems that shape our lives, and the world around us. You will gain a strong grasp of how politics is evolving, engage with ethical and philosophical debates and learn about sustainable business practices. The course covers a wide range of topics and gives you the ability to shape what you study.


Skills

In our BA Politics, Philosophy, and Economics programme, our foremost commitment is to equip you with a professional skillset that will empower you for the future. This encompasses the development of negotiation, leadership, and communication skills. As you journey through the course, you'll evolve into effective decision-makers, grounded in the art of negotiation within political and business frameworks, well-versed in ethical and philosophical principles that serve the greater good of humankind, and adept in making sound economic choices in a world of limited resources. These three interconnected strands ensure that you emerge fully prepared for the practical realities of thriving in political, economic, or business environments.


Careers

You will graduate from this course equipped with the confidence, skills, and breadth of knowledge pursue a very wide range of careers, across different sectors and in both professional and managerial roles. Graduates of PPE degrees occupy leadership positions in business, civil and public service, in thinktanks, charity sector roles and in local and national politics.
