Our Politics, Philosophy and Law (PPL) LLB degree is the first course of its kind in the UK. Co-taught by The Dickson Poon School of Law, the Department of Political Economy and the Department of Philosophy, this programme offers students the unique opportunity to explore these three different disciplines while simultaneously achieving a law degree. Students will learn from distinguished academics from these three outstanding departments. In addition to receiving a comprehensive legal training, PPL students will delve into contemporary legal, political, and philosophical theory to gain insight into how these disciplines connect with and inform one another. Our four-year course co-taught by The Dickson Poon School of Law, the Department of Philosophy and the Department of Political Economy is designed to educate the 'complete lawyer'. Over and above the legal expertise gained in the traditional, three-year LLB, the LLB in Politics, Philosophy & Law aims to provide broader insight into philosophical underpinnings of law and policy, as well as the social and political context in which law is made and practiced.
