Politics, Philosophy and Economics with Placement Year

About this course

Politics, philosophy, and economics is one of the most celebrated degree combinations in British higher education, bringing together three disciplines that between them provide an extraordinary set of tools for understanding how societies are organised, how they make collective decisions, and what values should guide those decisions. Politics examines the institutions and processes of governance, the dynamics of political behaviour, and the comparative analysis of different political systems.
