PHILOSOPHY, POLITICS AND ECONOMICS SINGLETON PARK CAMPUS
We are the only university in Wales, and one of the few in the UK, to offer Philosophy, Politics and Economics (PPE) - long regarded as the ideal preparation for a wide range of careers in public life. You will learn about the complex interactions between philosophical, political and economic thought and how they influence our society.
Our PPE programme highlights the ways political and economic thought emerged out of philosophical thought, and the continuing interactions between disciplines. You will study moral and political philosophy, ethics, justice and society, history of political thought, history of economic thought, European integration, British politics and public policy, political economy, globalisation, micro- and macro-economics, econometrics, and environmental and resource economics. You have the opportunity to undertake a placement with the National Assembly for Wales as part of the Year 3 module.
