Philosophy, Politics and Economics with a Year Abroad BA (Hons)

<strong>Overview</strong><br/><br/>Our BA Philosophy, Politics and Economics with a Year Abroad degree equips you with three powerful toolkits to decode global challenges and create meaningful change—enhanced by immersive international experience. Philosophy explores fundamental questions about knowledge, ethics, and human existence. Politics examines how societies organise themselves and make collective decisions. Economics investigates how resources are produced, distributed, and consumed. Together, these disciplines provide complementary tools to analyse todays most pressing issues—from inequality to technological disruption. <br/><br/>What distinguishes this programme is your transformative year abroad at one of our partner universities.

Engage with cutting-edge thinking through research seminars and public lectures featuring prominent thinkers addressing crucial contemporary debates. <br/><br/>Throughout your degree, youll transform theoretical knowledge into practical professional skills through workshops, internships, and consulting opportunities.
