BSc (Hons) Philosophy, Politics and Economics

Applications for this course are closed to UK (home) applicants for 2023/24. Applications for 2024/25 will open in September.

The BSc PPE programme will enable you to focus more of your degree on the discipline of Economics: you'll have the scope to develop your technical skills with a view to real-world economic applications and to dig deep into the economic decision-making of individuals, governments and organisations. As a PPE student, you will become an interdisciplinary analyst, as well as a versatile and persuasive communicator of complex ideas.

Understand the forces at work where power and money intersect with ideals. Grapple with the problems that shape society, explore the theory behind policy, and question the morality of competing systems of government. By what right do our rulers govern? What conditions create poverty, and how does wealth interact with political unrest?

Our flexible course lets you tailor your degree to your strengths. You'll learn with a diverse and international student body. Our active Club of Politics, Economics and Philosophy (PEP) encourages debate beyond the classroom, and with opportunities to study abroad you can develop a truly global perspective.

We also offer Philosophy, Politics and Economics (BA).

Learn from internationally respected experts from across three highly regarded departments. Build the understanding and analytical skills valued by top employers and become an agent of change.
